Redox titrations What are used and why in redox titrations
Transition elements change oxidation rate readily sp useful as oxidising and reducing agents so receive or give out electrons and change colour so easy to spot when reaction finished

Redox titrations What is important in redox titrations and why
May need acid in excess to ensure H+ ions
Redox titrations Titration procedures
First you measure out a quantity of the reducing agent, e.g. aqueous Fez+ ions, using a pipette, and put it in a conical flask. You then add some dilute sulfuric acid to the flask — this is an excess, so you don’t have to be too exact.. Now you gradually add the aqueous MnO, (the oxidising agent) to the reducing agent using a burette, swirling the conical flask as you do so. 4) You stop when the mixture in the flask just becomes tainted with the colour of the MnO,- (the end point) and record the volume of the oxidising agent added. 5) Run a few titrations and then calculate the mean volume of MnO,.
