A Chemist collected a 0.4891-g sample of an ore for Fe determination by a redox titration with K2Cr2O7.
The ore was carefully crushed prior to weighing and dissolved in HCl and using a Jones reductor the iron
in the sample was brought into the +2 oxidation state. After titration with diphenylamine sulfonic acid,it
required 36.92 mL of 0.02153 M K2Cr2O7 to reach the end point. Show your solution why 77.86% is the iron content of the ore as %w/w Fe2O3.
