In a volumetric analysis experiment, an acidic aqueous solution of methanol (CH3OH) is titrated with a solution of potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) according to the following balanced chemical equation: 2K2Cr2O7 (aq) + 8H2SO4 (aq) + 3CH3OH (aq) → 2Cr2 (SO4) 3 (aq) + 11H2O (l) + 3 HCOOH (aq) + 2K2SO4 (aq) What volume of 0.00143 M K2Cr2O7 is required to titrate 1.90 g of CH3OH dissolved in 50.0 mL of solution

    27.64 liters

    Explanation:

    From the balanced equation, 2 moles of K2Cr2O7 requires 3 moles of CH3OH.

    Mole of CH3OH = 1.9/32.04 = 0.0593 mole

    Mole of K2Cr2O7 that will require 0.0593 mole of CH3OH:

    2 x 0.0593/3 = 0.0395 mole

    mole = molarity x volume

    Volume of K2Cr2O7 needed = 0.0395/0.00143

    = 27.64 Liter

    Hence, 27.64 liters of 0.00143 M K2Cr2O7 will be required to titrate 1.90 g of CH3OH dissolved in 50.0 mL of solution
