An equal volume of a reducing agent is titrated separately with 1 M KMnO4in acid, neutral and alkaline medium. The volumes of KMnO4required are 20 mL in acid, 33.3 mL in neutral and 100 mL in alkaline media. Find out the volume (mL) of 1M K2Cr2O7consumed, if the same volume of the reducing agent is titrated in acid medium.
Report your answer by rounding it up to nearest whole number.

Answer:
17.00
Solution:

Let equal volumes of R.A in each case be X Meqs

MnO 4 - + 8 H + + 5 e - Mn 2 + + 4 H 2 O Acid Z = 5 MnO 4 - + 2 H 2 O + 3 e - MnO 2 + 4 OH - Neutral Z = 3 MnO 4 - + e - MnO 4 2 - Alkaline Z = 1

X millieqs. of R.A = 20×1 ×5 = 33.3×1 ×3 = 100×1 ×1 =100 millieqs

100 milli eqs. of R.A = 100 milli eqs. of K2Cr2O7

Cr 2 O 7 2 - + 1 4 H + + 6 e - 2 Cr 3 + + 7 H 2 O

100 milli eqs. of Cr 2 O 7 2 - = 6 × 1 × Volume mL,

Vol = 16.7 mL
