Asked by Sarah
a 5.000ml aqueous sample containing hydrogen peroxide as diluted to 25ml and analyzed by titration with permanganate.
2MnO4- + 5H2O + 6H+ --> 5O2 + 2Mn^2+ + 8H2O
The sample required 42.8 mL of 0.0175 M permangante to reach the end point. What is the concentration of H2O2 in the original sample?
so,i was trying to do M1V1 = M2V2 but I don't know the volume I would use for the hydrogen peroxide? Or is using that equation wrong...?

I think that using the equation is wrong, but im not 100 percent sure myself i mean im just trying to help as many ppl as i can

Nevermind - I think I see what I did wrong. I was using 25 mL as my volume for hydrogen peroxide, when I should have been using 20 mL since that was the volume being added. Though I don't necessarily understand how that's the volume that needs to be used.
