A sample of copper ore with a mass of 0.4225 g was dissolved in acid. A solution of potassium iodide was added, which caused the reaction:

2Cu2+(aq) + 5I (aq) → I3(aq ) + 2CuI(s)


The I3 that formed reacted quantitatively with exactly 29.96 mL of 0.02100 M Na2S2O3 according to the following equation:

I3 (aq) + 2S2O32– (aq) → 3I (aq ) + S4O62–(aq )


What was the percentage by mass of copper in the ore?

If the ore contained CuCO3, what was the percentage by mass of CuCO3 in the ore?

Calculate the number of moles of S2O32- ion in the solution given.

moles S2O32-
