When 25.00 mL of unknown were passed through a Jones reductor, molybdate ion (MoO42-) was converted into Mo3+. The filtrate required 16.43 mL of 0.01033 M KMnO4 to reach the purple end point.
MnO4- + Mo3+ → Mn2+ + MoO22+
A blank required 0.01 mL. Balance the reaction. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit states-of-matter.)
Find the molarity of molybdate in the unknown.
