Kyle LaPage Allison Moore (12129)- Tues/12pm 2/16/16 Pre Lab-exp. 4 1. a. 2H 2 22H O +22O 2 b. 2 KMnO + 34H SO + 2H O4= 2 Mn2O 2 K SO + 5O +48H O2 4 2 2 2. a. moles of KMnO used in the titration 4 b. moles of H O present in the sample 2 2 c. the molarity of the H O 2 2 3. The iron (III) chloride solution acts as a catalyst in the disassociation of H O . If n2t 2dded, the H 2 w2uld take much longer to disassociate. 4. It is important to keep the reaction mixture at a constant temperature because if it is not the reaction will occur because of the temperature and not by what we add. Temperature would increase a rate of reaction, therefore we don’t want to increase or decr
