Iron(II) can be oxidized to iron(III) by dichromate ion, which is reduced to chromium(III) in acid solution. A 2.5000-g sample of iron ore is dissolved and the iron converted into iron(II). Exactly 19.17 mL of 0.0100 M Na 2 Cr 2 O 7 is required in the titration. What percentage of the ore sample was iron?

The standard reduction potential for the reaction [ Co ( H 2 O ) 6 ] 3+ ( a q ) + e [ Co ( H 2 O ) 6 ] 2+ ( a q ) is about 1.8 V. The reduction potential for the reaction [ Co ( NH 3 ) 6 ] 3+ ( a q ) + e [ Co ( NH 3 ) 6 ] 2+ ( a q ) is +0.1 V. Calculate the cell potentials to show whether the complex ions, [Co(H 2 O) 6 ] 2+ and/or [Co(NH 3 ) 6 ] 2+ , can be oxidized to the corresponding cobalt(III) complex by oxygen.

E ° = −0.6 V, E ° is negative so this reduction is not spontaneous. E ° = +1.1 V

Give the oxidation state of the metal for each of the following oxides of the first transition series. (Hint: Oxides of formula M 3 O 4 are examples of mixed valence compounds in which the metal ion is present in more than one oxidation state. It is possible to write these compound formulas in the equivalent format MO·M 2 O 3 , to permit estimation of the metal’s two oxidation states.)
