Question

Permanganate ion oxidizes hydrogen peroxide in acidic solution according to the following equation:
2 MnO4–(aq) + 5 H2O2(aq) + 6 H+(aq) → 2 Mn2+(aq) + 5 O2(g) + 8 H2O(l)
If 35.0 mL of an acidic 0.150 M KMnO4 solution is required to consume all the H2O2 in 50.0 mL of a disinfectant solution, what is the concentration of H2O2 in the disinfectant?

A.

0.0420 M

B.

0.105 M

C.

0.263 M

✓ Correct
D.

0.368 M
