A weighed sample of sodium nitrite was treated with 0.05 mol of ceric sulfate in solution, in air-free conditions. The resulting solution was titrated with standard Fe(II) solution and 0.01 mol of Fe(II) were required. Determine the moles of sodium nitrite present in the weighed sample.  NO2– + 2 Ce4+ + H2O → NO3– + 2 Ce3+ + 2 H+ Fe2+ + Ce4+→ Fe3+ + Ce3+
