The BP requires Hydrogen Peroxide Mouthwash to contain 5.0 to 7.0% m/v H2O2. 10.0 mL of a sample was diluted to 100.0 mL with water. To 10.0 mL of this diluted solution, 20 mL of 1 M sulphuric acid was added and then titrated with 0.0203 M potassium permanganate solution. 37.63 mL was required to reach the end-point. Given that each mL of 0.02 M KMnO4 is equivalent to 1.701 mg H2O2, calculate the % m/v H2O2 content of the mouthwash sample. Does the sample comply with the BP requirement?
few initial steps im confused
1- What happens on dilution ?
( i think concentration changes if we dilute the solution from 10 to 100 mL.
But only 10 mL of diluted solution is taken.then what hapens to ammount of H2O2)
2 - what happens when 20 mL of 1M sulphuric acid was added
for titration i know steps
volume of 0.02 M potassium permagnate solution
0.02 M x V mL = 0.0203 M x 37.63 mL
V mL = 38.19 mL
now 1 ml of 0.02 M KMnO4 solution = 1.701 mg H2O2
so 38.19 ml of solution = 38.19 x 1.701 mg H2O2
= 64.9 mg H2O2
3- How to convert this to the ammount initially present in 10 mL of sample ? (before dilution )
