Calcium in blood or urine can be determined by precipitation as calcium oxalate, CaC2O4. The precipitate is dissolved in strong acid and titrated with potassium permanganate. The products of the reaction are carbon dioxide and manganese(II) ion. A 24-hour urine sample is collected from an adult patient, reduced to a small volume, and titrated with 26.2 mL of 0.0946 M KMnO4. How many grams of calcium oxalate are in the sample? Normal range for Ca2+ output for an adult is 100 to 300 mg per 24 hour. Is the sample within the normal range?
