metals with 8-hydroxyquinoline, C9H7NO. After weighing the mixed precipitate, the precipitate is dissolved and the amount of 8-hydroxyquinoline determined by another method. In a typical analysis, a 127.3 mg sample of an alloy containing iron, manganese, and other metals was dissolved in acid and treated with appropriate masking agents to prevent interference from other metals. The iron and manganese were precipitated and isolated as Fe(C9H6NO)3 and Mn(C9H6NO)2, yielding a total mass of 867.8 mg. The amount of 8-hydroxyquinolate in the mixed precipitate was determined to be 5.276 mmol. Calculate the %w/w Fe and %w/w Mn in the alloy
