A 0.846 M KMnO4 solution was used to determine the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2, MM = 34.016) content in a 25.48 mL of peroxide solution. It took 13.28 mL of the KMnO4 solution to reach the endpoint. What is the percentage (w/v) of H2O2 in the sample? The reaction is: 5 H2O2 + 2 MnO4- + 6 H+ ⟶ 5 O2 + 2 Mn2+ + 8 H2O
