Titration

level 4
Aims
In level 4, you'll analyse iron tablets to find out whether they contain the correct amount of iron. You'll perform titration
experiments to work out the concentration of iron in the tablets.

In each activity you'll be able to collect points. At the end of the level you can restart to improve your skills.

In a redox reaction both a reduction and an oxidation reaction occur.

When a species is reduced it gains electrons.

Potassium permanganate is a strong oxidising reagent.

The oxidation number decreases as you add electrons.

The presence of excess MnO4- ions act as an indicator in the redox titration because they turn the solution pink at the
end-point.
