The iron content of iron ore can be determined by titration with a standard KMnO 4 solution.

Question:

The iron content of iron ore can be determined by titration with a standard KMnO4 solution. The iron ore is dissolved in HCl, and all the iron is reduced to Fe2+ ions. This solution is then titrated with KMnO4 solution, producing Fe3+ and Mn2+ ions in acidic solution. If it required 38.37 mL of 0.0198 M KMnO4 to titrate a solution made from 0.6128 g of iron ore, what is the mass percent of iron in the iron ore?
