Here are the calculations for part (b).

Part (b): Calculate the concentration (mol/dm³) of the dichromate ions, Cr₂O₇²⁻, in solution M, using the titre t₂.

  1. Calculate the moles of Na₂S₂O₃ used in the titration (t₂).

    The mean titre (t₂) = 30.55 cm³ = 0.03055 dm³
    The concentration of Na₂S₂O₃ (from part a) = 0.3 mol/dm³

    Moles of Na2S2O3=Concentration×Volume=0.3 mol/dm3×0.03055 dm3=0.009165 mol\text{Moles of Na}_2\text{S}_2\text{O}_3 = \text{Concentration} \times \text{Volume} = 0.3 \text{ mol/dm}^3 \times 0.03055 \text{ dm}^3 = 0.009165 \text{ mol}
  2. Determine the moles of I₂ that reacted with Na₂S₂O₃.

    The reaction is: I₂(aq) + 2S₂O₃²⁻(aq) → 2I⁻(aq) + S₄O₆²⁻(aq)
    From the stoichiometry, 1 mole of I₂ reacts with 2 moles of S₂O₃²⁻.

    Moles of I2=12×Moles of Na2S2O3=12×0.009165 mol=0.0045825 mol\text{Moles of I}_2 = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Moles of Na}_2\text{S}_2\text{O}_3 = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.009165 \text{ mol} = 0.0045825 \text{ mol}
  3. Determine the moles of Cr₂O₇²⁻ that produced the I₂.

    The reaction is: Cr₂O₇²⁻(aq) + 6I⁻(aq) + 14H⁺(aq) → 3I₂(aq) + 2Cr³⁺(aq) + 7H₂O(l)
    From the stoichiometry, 1 mole of Cr₂O₇²⁻ produces 3 moles of I₂.

    Moles of Cr2O72−=13×Moles of I2=13×0.0045825 mol=0.0015275 mol\text{Moles of Cr}_2\text{O}_7^{2-} = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Moles of I}_2 = \frac{1}{3} \times 0.0045825 \text{ mol} = 0.0015275 \text{ mol}
  4. Calculate the concentration of Cr₂O₇²⁻ in solution M.

    The volume of solution M used for titration was 25 cm³ = 0.025 dm³.

    Concentration of Cr2O72−=MolesVolume=0.0015275 mol0.025 dm3=0.0611 mol/dm3\text{Concentration of Cr}_2\text{O}_7^{2-} = \frac{\text{Moles}}{\text{Volume}} = \frac{0.0015275 \text{ mol}}{0.025 \text{ dm}^3} = 0.0611 \text{ mol/dm}^3

    The concentration of dichromate ions, Cr₂O₇²⁻, in solution M is 0.0611 mol/dm3\boxed{\text{0.0611 mol/dm}^3}.
