A fermenter was filled with 10L of 0.6 mol/L sodium sulfite solution containing 0.003M Cu2+ ion and the air sparger was turned on. After exactly 10 minutes, the airflow was stopped and a 5 mL sample was taken and titrated. The concentration of sodium sulfite in the sample was found to be 0.2 M. Calculate the oxygen uptake rate.
