Answer:
Explanation:
The given chemical reaction is:
[tex]2H_2O_{(l)} \to^{I^-}} 2H_2O_{(l)}+O_2_{(g)}[/tex]
From above equation [tex]I^-[/tex] serves as catalyst which is not consumed by the reaction and also it is completely recovered; as a result to that , the full volume of KI will definitely react with AgNO₃.
Given that :
the volume of potassium iodide [tex]V_{KI} = 15 \ ml[/tex]
the molarity of potassium [tex]M_{KI} = 0.1 \ M[/tex]
the volume of distilled water [tex]V_W = 15 \ mL[/tex]
The volume of 3% [tex]H_2O_2 \ \ V_{H_2O_2} = 5 \ mL[/tex]
Molarity of AgNO₃ [tex]M_{AgNO_3} = 0.1 \ M[/tex]
Let take an integral look with the reaction between KI and AgNO₃; we have
[tex]KI + AgNO_3 \to KNO_3 + AgI[/tex]
At the end point; the moles of KI will definitely be equal to the moles of AgNO₃
So;
[tex]M_{KI}V_{KI}= M_{AgNO_3}V_{AgNO_3} \\ \\ V_{AgNO_3} = \dfrac{M_{KI}V_{KI}}{M_{AgNO_3}} \\ \\ \\ V_{AgNO_3} = \dfrac{ 0.1*15}{0.1}[/tex]
[tex]V_{AgNO_3} = 15 \ ml[/tex]
Thus; the volume of 0.1 M AgNO₃ needed to reach the end point is 15 mL
