A solution of is standardized iodometrically against 0.1262 g of where changes to . This process requires 45 mL of the solution. What is the normality of the ? [Mw. of ]

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

To refine the solution, we need to correctly apply the concept of normality and equivalents.

 

The reaction involves BrO₃⁻ changing to Br⁻.

The change in oxidation state for Br is from +5 to -1, which is a change of 6 electrons.

Therefore, the n-factor for KBrO₃ is 6.

 

Number of equivalents of KBrO₃ = (mass / molar mass) * n-factor

 

For standardization, equivalents of Na₂S₂O₃ = equivalents of KBrO₃.

Normality (N) = equivalents / Volume (L)

Rounding to one significant figure, the normality is 0.1 N.

 

The final answer is .
