Question
  1. A Medical Technology student was given a capsule of a multivitamins and she was asked to determine the % by mass (w/w) of ascorbic acid present in the capsule. The student analyzed the 2.001 g sample using volumetric titration. The following data was generated in the analysis:  

     

    KIO3 + 5KI + 6H+ → 3I2 + 6K+ + 3H2O

     C6H8O6 + I→ C6H6O6 + 2I- + 2H+
