- The iron content of hemoglobin is determined by destroying the hemoglobin molecule and producing small water-soluble ions and molecules. The iron in the aqueous solution is reduced to iron(II) ion and then titrated against potassium permanganate. In the titration, iron(ll) is oxidized to iron(III) and permanganate is reduced to manganese(II) ion. A 5.00-g sample of hemoglobin requires 32.3 mL of a 0.002100 M solution of potassium permanganate. The reaction with permanganate ion is MnO4(aq)+8H+(aq)+5Fe2+(aq)Mn2+(aq)+5Fe3+(aq)+4H2O What is the mass percent of iron in hemoglobin?arrow_forward4-81 (Chemical Connections 4C) Balance the lithium iodine battery redox reaction described in this sec tion and identify the oxidizing and reducing agents present.arrow_forwardWrite the net ionic equation for the reaction, if any, that occurs on mixing (a) solutions of sodium hydroxide and magnesium chloride.
