Question
8. NacIO, is the active ingredient in household bleach. The concentration of the
hypochlorite ion. CIO', can be determined in two stages.
In stage 1: An acidified iodide solution is added to a solution of the bleach and iodine
is formed.
CIO (aq) + 2 l (aq) + 2 H*
I2 (aq) + Cr" (aq) + H20 1)
In stage 2: The iodine formed is titrated with sodium thiosulphate solution
2 S203 2 (aq) +l2 (aq)
21 (aq) +S4O6 ² (aq)
10 ml of household bleach was diluted to 250 mL in a flask. 25 ml of this solution was
added to excess acidified potassium iodide solution. The solution was then titrated with 0.10 M
sodium thiosulphate using an appropriate indicator. The volume of thiosulphate solution
required to reach the end point of the titration was 20.50 cm³.
(a) Calculate the number of moles of iodine which reacted in the titration.
(b) Calculate the concentration of the CIO in the original household bleach.
