I am not a chemist or have any profession on chemistry but i do have a question and i hope you understand it here goes:
-I have a solution of KMnO4(Potassium PerManganate),
20Kg KMnO4 is mixed with 620L H2O which I believe yields = 3.22% concentration of KMnO4 and [with a of Ph = 8 or 10?i will
have to test this tomorrow.]
-KMnO4 is now constantly bubbled with CO2 gas which dilutes the concentration and after a while(days) some KMnO4 +H2O liquid dries up and Ph is now less than before therefore assuming that my concentration of KMnO4 is now less(?).
1.) How do I determine the spent concentration of KMnO4? [my only apparatus is a Ph meter, a sight glass to measure height of my solution in container, and my eyes to see the color of KMnO4]
2.) How do I compute for make-up concentration ratio (KMnO4 Kg / H2O L) in order that my spent KMnO4 gets back to 3.22%
concentration?
