LAB: Determination of iron in multivitamin tablets by colorimetry and verification of consistency between two batches of tablets
What is the function of ascorbic acid in this experiment?
Determination of iron in multivitamin tablets :
Multivitamin tablet containing iron is digested in a strong acid, solution is prepared by serial dilutions.The concentration of Fe is determined using colorimetry and it is done by complex formation, which absorbs at characteristic wavelength.
The dissolved iron in solution is in Fe (III) form which is reduced to iron (II) with ascorbic acid. Thus. ascorbic acid is used for reduction of Fe(III).
Ascorbic acid + Fe (III) ====> Dehydroascorbic acid + Fe (II)
This iron (II) ion forms a colored complex with suitable ligands (usually bipyridyl ).

LAB: Determination of iron in multivitamin tablets by colorimetry and verification of consistency between two batches of tablets Briefly describe how you will use this method to determine the relative concentration of different Fe species (ie Fe (II) and Fe (iii) oxidation states in the same solution), for example in lake water to monitor environments oxido- reduction.
In Spectrophotometric Determination of Iron in Vitamin Tablets lab , would the bioavailability of iron affect the quantity of iron in the vitamin tablet?

Question 3 What is the purpose of the hydroxylamine hydrochloride in this experiment and why was this important?
THE DETERMINATION OF IRON BY SPECTROPHOTOMETRY INTRODUCTION In this experiment, the red-orange colored complex formed between iron(II) and 1,10- phenanthroline (Eqn.) is used in determination of iron by spectrophotometry. Fe+3PhenH Fe(Phen)2 +3H red-orange (A 512 nm) An excess of reducing reagent, such as hydroxylamine or hydroquinone, is often used to reduce and maintain iron in +2 oxidation state. The complex, once formed, is very stable, and can be stored for a long time. Required Reading: Skoog and West (9E): Chapter...

Determination of Ka and Identification of an Unknown Weak Acid Post-lab Question 1. Suppose that a student performing this experiment mistakenly calibrated the pH meter using pH 8 buffer instead of pH 7 buffer. As a result of this error, all of the student's pH readings were too low. a) Would this error have affected the calculated molar mass of the unknown acid? Briefly explain. b) Would this error have affected the experimentally determined pKa of the unknown acid? Briefly...

A device is created in the lab which measures the velocity of two carts on a track. The two carts are proving towards each other. Cart A is moving the right and Cart B is moving to the left. After an inelastic collision they are moving, stuck together, to the right. Momentum is conserved in this experiment. The equation relating the momentum to the mass and velocity is: p = mv where p is the momentum, m is...
