Aim: To find out the mass of Iron (II) sulphate each ‘Iron tablet’ contains Background Knowledge: ‘Iron tablets’ are prescribed to patients suffering from anaemia. They contain 200mg (0.200g) of iron (II) sulphate FeSO4 We are going to analyse iron tablets to find out how much Iron (II) sulphate they contain. The procedure we will use is a REDOX reaction‚ by oxidising the Fe2+ contained in the Iron (II) sulphate to Fe3+. We will use potassium manganite (VII) as the oxidising agent. The active part
