Both OK :)

Now that the equations are balanced, I am still unsure of how to use the stoichiometry since there are two separate equations  :-[. How do I connect them?

Thanks again.

You should know mass of iodate used - use it to calculate how much iodine was produced in the first reaction. This is the amount used in the second part.

An already prepared 0.00125 M potassium iodide-iodate solution was used. Does this mean that the mass is 0.00125 mol of iodate to start off?

Thanks again.

n=CV

Is it 0.00125 iodide, 0.00125 iodate, or both? Usually iodide is used in small excess.

Well, I suppose it is both since the chemical bottle is labelled potassium iodide-iodate, but I don't know how many grams of iodate or iodide was used to create the solution's molarity.

I think you should assume it is 0.00125 in both. atlhough that's probably not true. Still, n=CV holds.

So to find the more accurate number of moles, I would let

n = 0.00125 M*.2 L of iodide-iodate solution used = mol of IO3- instead of mol IO3- = 0.00125 M?

Then, mol of IO3-(3 mol I2/1 mol IO3-)*(2 mol S2O3 (2-)/1mol I2) = mol of  S2O3 (2-)

M of sodium thiosulfate = mol of  S2O3 (2-)/ L of titrant used

Thanks again.

Is the above method correct?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Seems OK. Where did you get 0.2L from - I don't recall this value posted earlier. Is it the volume of the iodide/iodate solution used?

Yes, 200 mL of the solution was used. As a matter of fact, it was 20 mL of 0.0125 M of potassium iodide-iodate solution plus 180 mL of H2O to create 0.00125 M of potassium iodide-iodate . . .

IO3- + I- + H+ -> I2 + H2O

I2 + S2O32- -> I- + S4O62-

Note these are not balanced.


How did you setup, or get, these equations?

Thanks again.

They are published in most analytical chemistry books, they can be also googled in less then 30 seconds.
