also synthesize Potassium Ferric Oxalate Trihydrate (K_3 [〖Fe(C_2 O_4)〗_3]•3H_2 O) using a two step reaction. In the second part of this lab we will calculate how much Oxalate Ion is present in the K_3 [〖Fe(C_2 O_4)〗_3]•3H_2 O using tirtimetry. This process is called quantitative chemical analysis and will be very helpful. Introduction: To produce K_3 [〖Fe(C_2 O_4 )〗_3 ]•3H_2 O we will use a two step reaction: Fe〖(NH_4)〗_2 〖(SO_4)〗_2•6H_2 O+H_2 C_2 O_4 □(→┴ ) FeC_2 O_4•2H_2 O+〖(NH_4)〗_2 SO_4+H_2
