Chromel is an alloy composed of nickel, iron and chromium. A 0.6553-g sample was dissolved and diluted to 250.0 mL. When a 50.00-mL aliquot of 0.05173 M EDTA was mixed with an equal volume of the diluted sample, all three ions were chelated, and a 5.34-mL back titration with 0.06139 M copper (II)

Iron and chromium were masked with pyrophosphate in a third 50.00-mL aliquot, and the nickel was titrated with 24.53 mL of the EDTA solution. Calculate the percentage of Cr in the alloy. Express your answer in 2 decimal places.
