Examiner’s
Use
1 Aqueous hydrogen peroxide has a wide range of reactions. Its concentration can be
determined by titrating it with an acidified solution of potassium manganate(VII).

You are to carry out the following tests on a solution of hydrogen peroxide and then
determine its concentration.

P is an acidified solution of hydrogen peroxide of unknown concentration.

Q has been prepared by diluting solution P.
R is 0.0200 mol/dm3 potassium manganate(VII).
S is an unknown solid.

(a) Reactions of hydrogen peroxide. You should test and name any gas evolved.

Test Test Observations

no.

1 To a portion of P, add an equal volume of

aqueous potassium dichromate(VI).

2 To a portion of P, add an equal volume of

aqueous potassium iodide.

3 (a) To a portion of aqueous iron(II)

sulphate, add an equal volume of P.

(b) To a portion of the mixture from (a)

add aqueous sodium hydroxide until a
change is seen.

Use
(b) Determination of the concentration of Q.

Put solution R into the burette. Because the colour of R is so intense, you may find it easier
to read the top of the meniscus for all measurements.

Pipette a 25.0 cm3 (or 20.0 cm3) portion of Q into a flask and titrate with R. At first the purple
colour disappears rapidly. As the titration proceeds, this disappearance is less rapid. At the
end-point, one drop of R produces a pale pink colour that does not disappear on swirling.

Record your results in the table, repeating the titration as many times as you consider
necessary to achieve consistent results.

Use
(c) R is 0.0200 mol/dm3 potassium manganate(VII).
Five moles of hydrogen peroxide react with two moles of potassium manganate(VII).
Using your results from (b), calculate the concentration, in mol/dm3, of hydrogen
peroxide in Q.

Concentration of hydrogen peroxide in Q is ......................... mol/dm3. [2]

Use
2 You are provided with a solution T which contains a simple salt. Carry out the following tests
and record your observations in the table.

Test Test Observations

no.

1 (a) To a portion of T, add aqueous

sodium hydroxide until a change is seen.

(b) Add excess aqueous sodium

hydroxide to the mixture from (a).

2 (a) To a portion of T, add aqueous

ammonia until a change is seen.

(b) Add excess aqueous ammonia to

the mixture from (a).

3 (a) To a portion of T, add an equal

volume of aqueous silver nitrate.

(b) Add dilute nitric acid to the mixture

from (a).
