Potassium permanganate, KMnO4 is a deep purple solid and solutions of KMnO4 can be analyzed using
UV/VIS Spectroscopy. A set of standards is run and the best fit line for the calibration curve is found to be
A=0.105(% w/v) + 0.042
A 16.68mL aliquot of an unknown sample containing KMnO4 was diluted to a final volume of 200.05mL.
Analysis of the sample at a wavelength of 590nm in a 1.00cm cuvette was found to have a %T = 49.2.
Calculate the concentration of KMnO4 (% w/v) in the unknown sample. Give your answer to 2 places after the
decimal.
