this test has been the hardest one I’ve solved so far hahah this is my 3rd question I’m asking here,
answer is E

Hey, this is how I solved this question, please feel free to ask for any additional info! (It’s a bit messy

thank you so much for the answer!
one question, what did you do after the ratio of 1:5 of KMnO4 and Fe
i got to that part then couldn’t find what to dive with what

I was confused with that part too :frowning: Like I don’t get how potassium just pops out.

I’m really sorry to say this but I low key guessed this question haha

Since K is Group 1 and MnO4- ion has 1- and they create KMnO4 together, I assumed MnO4- : K+ = 1 : 1.

So Fe2+ : MnO4- : K+ = 5 : 1 : 1.
