The quantity of antimony in a sample can be determined by an oxidation-reduction titration with an oxidizing agent. A 7.75 g sample of stibnite, an ore of antimony, is dissolved in hot, concentrated HCl(aq) and passed over a reducing agent so that all the antimony is in the form Sb³+ (aq). The Sb³+ (aq) is completely oxidized by 30.3 mL of a 0.145 M aqueous solution of KBrO3(aq). The unbalanced equation for the reaction is BrO3(aq) + Sb³+ (aq) - Br¯(aq) + Sb5+ (aq) (unbalanced) Calculate the amount of antimony in the sample and its percentage in the ore. mass of antimony:

The iron content of iron ore can be determined by titration with a standard KMnO4 solution. The iron ore is dissolved in HCl, and all the iron is reduced to Fe²+ ions. This solution is then titrated with KMnO4 solution, producing Fe³+ and 3+ Mn²+ ions in acidic solution. If it required 34.08 mL of 0.0510 M KMnO4 to titrate a solution made from 1.957 g of iron ore, what is the mass percent of iron in the iron ore? Mass percent = %
