Correct answer: 13

  1. Reactions involved

When MnO2MnO_2MnO2​ reacts with hydrochloric acid:

MnO2+4HCl→MnCl2+Cl2+2H2OMnO_2 + 4HCl \rightarrow MnCl_2 + Cl_2 + 2H_2OMnO2​+4HCl→MnCl2​+Cl2​+2H2​O

Thus, 111 mole of MnO2MnO_2MnO2​ liberates 111 mole of Cl2Cl_2Cl2​.

The liberated chlorine reacts with potassium iodide:

Cl2+2KI→2KCl+I2Cl_2 + 2KI \rightarrow 2KCl + I_2Cl2​+2KI→2KCl+I2​

Thus, 111 mole of Cl2Cl_2Cl2​ liberates 111 mole of I2I_2I2​.

The iodine is titrated with sodium thiosulfate:

I2+2Na2S2O3→2NaI+Na2S4O6I_2 + 2Na_2S_2O_3 \rightarrow 2NaI + Na_2S_4O_6I2​+2Na2​S2​O3​→2NaI+Na2​S4​O6​

Thus, 111 mole of I2I_2I2​ requires 222 moles of Na2S2O3Na_2S_2O_3Na2​S2​O3​.


  1. Moles of Na2S2O3Na_2S_2O_3Na2​S2​O3​ used

Volume of Na2S2O3Na_2S_2O_3Na2​S2​O3​ solution =60.0 mL=0.0600 L= 60.0\text{ mL} = 0.0600\text{ L}=60.0 mL=0.0600 L

Molarity =0.1 M= 0.1\text{ M}=0.1 M

moles of Na2S2O3=M×V=0.1×0.0600=0.0060\text{moles of } Na_2S_2O_3 = M \times V = 0.1 \times 0.0600 = 0.0060moles of Na2​S2​O3​=M×V=0.1×0.0600=0.0060


  1. Moles of I2I_2I2​ liberated

From

I2:Na2S2O3=1:2I_2 : Na_2S_2O_3 = 1:2I2​:Na2​S2​O3​=1:2

so,

moles of I2=0.00602=0.0030\text{moles of } I_2 = \frac{0.0060}{2} = 0.0030moles of I2​=20.0060​=0.0030


  1. Moles of Cl2Cl_2Cl2​ produced

Since

Cl2:I2=1:1Cl_2 : I_2 = 1:1Cl2​:I2​=1:1

moles of Cl2=0.0030\text{moles of } Cl_2 = 0.0030moles of Cl2​=0.0030


  1. Moles of MnO2MnO_2MnO2​ in sample

Since

MnO2:Cl2=1:1MnO_2 : Cl_2 = 1:1MnO2​:Cl2​=1:1

moles of MnO2=0.0030\text{moles of } MnO_2 = 0.0030moles of MnO2​=0.0030


  1. Mass of MnO2MnO_2MnO2​

Molar mass of MnO2MnO_2MnO2​:

55+2(16)=87 g mol−155 + 2(16) = 87\text{ g mol}^{-1}55+2(16)=87 g mol−1

Therefore,

mass of MnO2=0.0030×87=0.261 g\text{mass of } MnO_2 = 0.0030 \times 87 = 0.261\text{ g}mass of MnO2​=0.0030×87=0.261 g


  1. Percentage of MnO2MnO_2MnO2​ in 2.0 g sample

%MnO2=0.2612.0×100=13.05%\%MnO_2 = \frac{0.261}{2.0} \times 100 = 13.05\%%MnO2​=2.00.261​×100=13.05%

Nearest integer:

13\boxed{13}13​


  1. Comparison with stored answer

Stored correct answer = 131313

Our derived answer = 131313

So, the answer agrees with the stored correct answer.
