Quinone can be reduced to hydroquinone with an excess of electrolytically generated Sn(II):

The polarity of the working electrode is then reversed, and the excess Sn(II) is oxidized with Br2 generated in a coulometric titration:

Appropriate quantities of SnCl4 and KBr were added to a 50.0-mL sample. Calculate the mass of C6H4O2 in the sample from the data:
