Ethyl Mercaptan (C₂H5SH) is a colorless or yellowish liquid or a gas with a pungent, garlic or skunk-like
odor. The concentration of this compound was determined by shaking a 3.85 g sample with 58.00 mL of
0.01204 M lodine (12) in a tightly stoppered flask. The reaction is shown below.
2 C2H5SH + 12 → C2H5SSC2H5 +2 I¯ + 2H+
The excess 12 was back titrated with 19.86 mL of 0.01437 M Na2S2O3 according to the reaction:
12(aq) + 2 S₂032 (aq) → 21" (aq) +S406²-(aq)
Calculate the percentage C₂H5SH (MW = 62.14 g/mol).
