a 0.1965g sample containing copper is analysed iodometrically. copper(ii) is reduced to copper(i) by iodide:

2Cu2+ + 4I- --> 2Cul + I2

calculate the percentage of copper in the sample if 25.0mL of 0.1005M Na2S2O3 is required for the titration of the liberated iodine.

Expert Solution

2Cu2+ + 4I- --> 2Cul + I2

2Na2S2O3 + I2 ----------> 2NaI + Na2S4O6

no of moles of Na2S2O3 = molarity * volume in L

= 0.1005*0.025 = 0.0025125moles

2moles of Na2S2O3 react with 1 moles of I2

0.0025125 moles of Na2S2O3 react with = 1*0.0025125/2 = 0.00125625 moles of I2

2Cu2+ + 4I- --> 2Cul + I2

1 moles of I2 obtained from 2 moles of Cu⁺²

0.00125625 moles of I2 obtained from = 2*0.00125625 = 0.0025125 moles of Cu⁺²

mass of Cu⁺² = no of moles * atomic mass of Cu

= 0.0025125*63.5 = 0.15954g of Cu

percentage of Cu = 0.15954*100/0.1965 = 81.19%

I conducted an experiment in lab to synthesize copper(II) and iron(II) oxalate. I calculated a final mass of 7.4202g K_3[Fe(C_2O_4)_3] x 3H_2O (g). In order to find the theoretical mass of this substance, do I assume that theoretical mass is equal to the molar mass of that product formed? Then to find % yield - take the actual mass of 7.4202g/theoretical (491.326g)x100? I feel as though I am missing something here. Can someone please explain and help me solve this...
