OXIDATION- REDUCTION TITRATION:
B.KIRUTHIGALECTURER
DEPT OF PHARMACEUTICAL CHEMISTRY
What are we doing in this experiment?
Determine the % of Iron, in a sample by performing a redox titration between a solution of the iron sample and potassium permanganate (KMnO4).
What is redox titration?A TITRATION WHICH DEALS WITH A REACTION INVOLVING OXIDATION AND REDUCTION OF CERTAIN CHEMICAL SPECIES.
What is a titration?The act of adding standard solution in small quantities to the test solution till the reaction is complete is termed titration.
What is a standard solution?
A standard solution is one whose concentration is precisely known.
What is a test solution?A test solution is one whose concentration is to be estimated
What is oxidation?Old definition:
Combination of substance with oxygen
C (s) + O2(g) CO2(g)
Current definition: Loss of Electrons is Oxidation (LEO)
Na Na+ + e-
Positive charge represents electron deficiencyONE POSITIVE CHARGE MEANS DEFICIENT BY ONE ELECTRON
What is reduction?Old definition:
Removal of oxygen from a compound
WO3 (s) + 3H2(g) W(s) + 3H2O(g)
Current definition: Gain of Electrons is Reduction (GER)
Cl + e- Cl -
Negative charge represents electron richnessONE NEGATIVE CHARGE MEANS RICH BY ONE ELECTRON
OXIDATION-REDUCTION
Oxidation and reduction go hand in hand. In a reaction, if there is an atom undergoingoxidation, there is probably another atom undergoing reduction.
When there is an atom that donates electrons, there is always an atom that accepts electrons.
Electron transfer happens from one atom toanother.
How to keep track of electron transfer?
Oxidation number or oxidation state (OS):
Usually a positive, zero or a negative number (an integer)
A positive OS reflects the tendency atom to loose electrons
A negative OS reflects the tendency atom to gain electrons
Rules for assigning OSThe sum of the oxidation numbers of all of the atomsin a molecule or ion must be equal in sign and value to the charge on the molecule or ion.
KMnO4 SO42-
Potassium Permanganate Sulfate anion
OS of K + OS of Mn +4(OS of O) = 0 OS of S + 4(OS of O) = -2
NH4+
Ammonium cation
OS of N + 4(OS of H) = +1
Also, in an element, such as S8 or O2 , this rule requires that all atoms must have an oxidation number of 0.
In binary compounds (those consisting of only twodifferent elements), the element with greaterelectronegativity is assigned a negative OS equalto its charge as a simple monatomic ion.
NaClNa+ Cl-
MgSMg2+ S2-
When it is bonded directly to a non-metal atom, the hydrogen atom has an OS of +1. (When bonded to a metal atom, hydrogen has an OS of -1.)
Except for substances termed peroxides or superoxides, the OS of oxygen in its compounds is -2. In peroxides, oxygen has an oxidation number of -1, and in superoxides, it has an oxidation number of -½ .
H2O HCl2H+ O2-
NH4+
N3- 4(H+) H+ Cl-
Hydrogen peroxide: H2O2= 2H+ 2O-
Potassium superoxide: KO2= K+ 2O -1/2
Please Remember !!In a periodic table,
Vertical columns are called GROUPS
Horizontal rows are called PERIODS
Electronegativity increases as we more left to rightalong a period.
Electronegativity decrease as we move top to bottomdown a group.

Sample problemFind the OS of each Cr in K2Cr2O7
Let the OS of each Cr be = x
OS of K = +1 (Remember K belongs to Gp. 1A)
OS of O = -2 (Remember O belongs to Gp. 6A)
Net charge on the neutral K2Cr2O7 molecule = 0So we have,2(OS of K) + 2 ( OS of Cr) + 7 (OS of O)= 0
2(+1) + 2 ( x) + 7 (-2)= 02+ 2 ( x) +(-14)= 0
2+ 2 ( x) +(-14)= 0
2 ( x) +(-12) = 0
2 ( x) = (12)x = 6
Find the OS of each C in C2O42-
Let the OS of each C be = xOS of O = -2 (Remember O belongs to Gp. 6A)So we have,
2(OS of C) + 4 ( OS of O) = -22(x) + 4 ( -2) = -2
2 ( x) +(-8)= -2
2 ( x) +(-8)= -22 ( x) = +6
( x) = +3
Find the OS of N in NH4+
Let the OS of each N be = xOS of H = +1 (Remember H belongs to Gp. 1A)So we have,
(OS of N) + 4 ( OS of H) = +1(x) + 4 ( +1) = +1
( x) +(4)= +1( x) = -3
Balancing simple redoxreactionsCu (s) + Ag +(aq) Ag(s) + Cu2+(aq)
Step 1: Pick out similar species from the equation
Cu(s) Cu2+(aq)
Ag +(aq) Ag (S)
Step 2: Balance the equations individually forcharges and number of atomsCu0(S) Cu2+(aq) + 2e-
Ag +(aq) + e- Ag (S)
Balancing simple redox reactionsCu0(S) Cu2+(aq) + 2e-
Ag +(aq) + e- Ag (S)
Cu0(S) becomes Cu 2+ (aq) by loosing 2 electrons.So Cu0(S) getting oxidized to Cu2+(aq) is theoxidizing half reaction.
Ag+(aq) becomes Ag 0 (S) by gaining 1 electron.So Ag+(aq) getting reduced to Ag (S) is thereducing half reaction.

Balancing simple redoxreactionsFinal Balancing act:
[Cu0(S) Cu2+(aq) + 2e-] × 1
[Ag +(aq) + e- Ag (S)]× 2

So we have,Cu0(S) Cu2+(aq) + 2e-
2Ag +(aq) + 2e- 2Ag (S)
Cu0(S) Cu2+(aq) + 2e-
2Ag +(aq) + 2e- 2Ag (S)
Balancing simple redoxreactions
Cu0(S) + 2Ag +(aq) + 2e-Cu2+(aq) + 2Ag (S) + 2e-
Cu0(S) + 2Ag +(aq) Cu2+(aq) + 2Ag (S)
Number of e-s involved in the overall reaction is 2

5 Fe 2+ ions are oxidized by 1 MnO4- ion to 5 Fe3+
ions. Conversely 1 MnO4- is reduced by 5 Fe2+ ions
to Mn2+.
If we talk in terms of moles:
5 moles of Fe 2+ ions are oxidized by 1mole of MnO4
- ions to 5 moles of Fe3+ ions. Conversely 1 mole of MnO4
- ions is reduced by 5 moles of Fe2+ ions to 1 mole of Mn2+ ions.
Conclusion from the balanced
chemical equationFor one mole of MnO4
- to completely react With Fe2+, you will need 5 moles of Fe2+ ions.So if the moles of MnO4
- used up in the reactionis known, then the moles of Fe2+ involved in the reaction will be 5 times the moles of MnO4

How does this relationship concern our experiment?Titration of unknown sample of Iron Vs KMnO4:
The unknown sample of iron contains, iron in Fe2+
oxidation state. So we are basically doing a redoxtitration of Fe2+ Vs KMnO4

Problem with KMnO4
Unfortunately, the permanganate solution, once prepared, begins to decompose by the following reaction:
4 MnO4-(aq) + 2 H2O(l) 4 MnO2(s) + 3 O2(g) + 4 OH-(aq)
So we need another solution whose concentrationis precisely known to be able to find the preciseconcentration of KMnO4 solution.

5 C2O42- ions are oxidized by 2 MnO4

If we talk in terms of moles:
5 moles of C2O42- ions are oxidized by 2 moles MnO4
-
ions to 10 moles of CO2 molecules. Conversely 2 molesof MnO4
- is reduced by 5 moles of C2O42- ions to
2 moles of Mn2+ ions.
Conclusion from the balancedchemical equation
For 5 moles of C2O42- ions to be completely oxidized
by MnO4- we will need 2 moles of MnO4
- ions. Conversely for 2 moles of MnO4
- to be completely reduced by C2O4
2-, we will need 5 moles of C2O42- ions

1.Wear SAFETY GOGGLES AND GLOVES2.Use graduated cylinder to dispense the acid
from the bottle3. Please have about 100 mL of water in
500 mL volumetric flask, before addingacid in to it.
4. Add acid to the flask slowly in small aliquots.
