44. One gram of an oxide of iron is fused with potassium acid sulphate and the fusion dissolved in acid. The iron is reduced with stannous chloride, mercuric chloride is added, and the iron titrated with a normal K_{2}Cr_{2}O_{7} solution. 12.94 cc. were used. What is the formula of the oxide, FeO, Fe_{2}O_{3}, or Fe_{3}O_{4}? !Answer!: Fe_{3}O_{4}. 45. If an element has 98 for its atomic weight, and after reduction with stannous chloride could be oxidized by bichromate to a state corresponding to an XO_{4}^{-} anion, compute the oxide, or valence, corresponding to the reduced state from the following data: 0.3266 gram of the pure element, after being dissolved, was reduced with stannous chloride and oxidized by 40 cc. of K_{2}Cr_{2}O_{7}, of which one cc. = 0.1960 gram of FeSO_{4}(NH_{4})_{2}SO_{4}.6H_{2}O. !Answer!: Monovalent. 46. Determine the percentage of iron in a sample of limonite from the following data: Sample = 0.5000 gram. KMnO_{4} used = 50 cc. 1 cc. KMnO_{4} = 0.005317 gram Fe. FeSO_{4} used = 6 cc. 1 cc. FeSO_{4} = 0.009200 gram FeO. !Answer!: 44.60%. 47. If 1 gram of a silicate yields 0.5000 gram of Fe_{2}O_{3} and Al_{2}O_{3} and the iron present requires 25 cc. of 0.2 N KMnO_{4}, calculate the percentage of FeO and Al_{2}O_{3} in the sample. !Answer!: 35.89% FeO; 10.03% Al_{2}O_{3}. 48. A sample of magnesia limestone has the following composition: Silica, 3.00%; ferric oxide and alumina, 0.20%; calcium oxide, 33.10%; magnesium oxide, 20.70%; carbon dioxide, 43.00%. In manufacturing lime from the above the carbon dioxide is reduced to 3.00%. How many cubic centimeters of normal KMnO_{4} will be required to determine the calcium oxide volumetrically in a 1 gram sample of the lime? !Answer!: 20.08 cc. 49. If 100 cc. of potassium bichromate solution (10 gram K_{2}Cr_{2}O_{7} per liter), 5 cc. of 6 N sulphuric acid, and 75 cc. of ferrous sulphate solution (80 grams FeSO_{4}.7H_{2}O per liter) are mixed, and the resulting solution titrated with 0.2121 N KMnO_{4}, how many cubic centimeters of the KMnO_{4} solution will be required to oxidize the iron? !Answer!: 5.70 cc. 50. If a 0.5000 gram sample of limonite containing 59.50 per cent Fe_{2}O_{3} requires 40 cc. of KMnO_{4} to oxidize the iron, what is the value of 1 cc. of the permanganate in terms of (a) Fe, (b) H_{2}C_{2}O_{4}.2H_{2}O? !Answers!: (a) 0.005189 gram; (b) 0.005859 gram. 51. A sample of pyrolusite weighing 0.6000 gram is treated with 0.9000 gram of oxalic acid. The excess oxalic acid requires 23.95 cc. of permanganate (1 cc. = 0.03038 gram FeSO_{4}.7H_{2}O). What is the percentage of MnO_{2}, in the sample? !Answer!: 84.47%. 52. A solution contains 50 grams of KHC_{2}O_{4}.H_{2}C_{2}O_{4}.2H_{2}O per liter. What is the normal value of the solution (a) as an acid, and (b) as a reducing agent? !Answers!: (a) 0.5903 N; (b) 0.7872 N.
