Objectives;
1. Determinations of molar absorption coefficient of dichromate
and permanganate ions
2. Established the additivity of absorbance values of dichromate
and permanganate ions.
3. Determination of the concentration of dichromate
and
permanganate ions in the mixture.
Introduction
In this experiment was determined the amount of chromium and manganese in a given
mixture. These were presented as dichromate and manganate ions respectively. In fact, this
determination mimics the determination of the amount of chromium and manganese in alloy steels
wherein these are oxidized to dichromate and permanganate ions respectively. The spectra of these
ions overlap to certain extent. On dissolution of alloy steel containing chromium and manganese,
get these elements as their ions; Cr3+ and Mn2+ ions respectively. In the determination, these are
oxidised respectively to dichromate and permanganate ions using potassium persulphate and
potassium periodate, respectively. The orange red coloured dichromate shows maximum absorption
(max) at 440 nm while for the pink coloured permanganate the max is at 545 nm. However,
permanganate also absorbs at 440 nm to a smaller extent. Similarly, dichromate ions also have small
absorption at 545 nm. In simple words, both the species absorb at the wavelengths of maximum
absorptions mentioned above.
2
Thus, the absorption of the solution containing a mixture of dichromate and permanganate
ions at these wavelengths would be the sum of the absorbances of the two species. It can be shown
that the absorbances of these two ions obey Beer-Lambert’s law when measured individually and
also in a mixture in presence of 0.5 M sulphuric acid.
Under these conditions following expressions can be mentioned assuming a unit path length.
Here, the meaning of the terms used is self-evident. For example,
Cr, 545 refers to the molar
absorption coefficient at 545 nm for chromium as dichromate ion; A440 refers to the absorbance of
the mixture at 440 nm and [Cr2O72-] represents the concentration of dichromate ions and so on. This
kind of equations are needed to solve these simultaneous equations to determine both the species
without their separation. Solving Equation 1 and 2 can be get the following expressions for the
concentrations of dichromate and permanganate ions.
3
Thus, the concentrations of the two ions was obtained from the absorbance measurements at
440 and 545 nm, molar absorption coefficients for both the ions wavelengths was given. The values
of the molar absorption coefficients are obtained from absorbance measurements of pure solutions
of the two substances at the designated wavelengths. Fe3+, Ni2+, Co2+ and V2+ also absorb in these
regions, therefore these should be absent from the analyte solution.

Procedure
1 M sulphuric acid (Reference blank):
It was prepared by adding (with constant swirling) 53.3 cm3 of analytical grade concentrated
sulphuric acid in to a one litre flask containing about 500 cm3 of distilled water, allowing the flask to
cool and making up the volume using distilled water.
Potassium dichromate (0.002 M) in 1M sulphuric acid:
It was accurately weighted 0.1471 g of analytical grade potassium dichromate and quantitatively
transferred to a 250 cm3 volumetric flask and adding sufficient amount of 1 M sulphuric acid to
dissolve it. Once the compound dissolves the volume is made upto the mark with 1M sulphuric acid.
Oxalic acid (0.005 M):
It was prepared by accurately weighted 0.063 g of oxalic acid and quantitatively transferred to a 100
cm3 volumetric flask and added sufficient amount of water to dissolve it. Once dissolved the volume
was made upto the mark with distilled water.
Potassium permanganate (0.002 M) in 1 M sulphuric acid:
It was prepared as follows.
➢ A.R. potassium permanganate was weighed about 1.8 g and dissolved in 50 cm3 of distilled
water taken in a 100 cm3 beaker.
➢ The solution was heated to boil and gently continued for about 15 minutes.
➢ The solution was c ooled and filtered through a plug of glass wool in the funnel.
➢ 10 cm3 of the filtrate w a s t aken in a 100 cm3 beaker and diluted to 100 cm3 with 1M
sulphuric acid.
➢ The solution was standardized by titrating with a standard solution of oxalic acid in
acidic medium.
➢ The volume w a s c alculated by solution required to prepare 250 cm3 of 0.002 M solution.
➢ The requited volume was taken by standardized solution of potassium permanganate in a
250 cm3 volumetric flask. The volume w a s m ade up with 1M sulphuric acid.

Discussion;
All the reagents were used as in AR grade. All the glassware used as in cleaned conditions.
Absorptions were taken in cuvettes of 1cm path length, if not so need to be modified molar
absorption coefficient and concentrations would need to be modified.
Concentration of given mixture were calculated by applying factors to eq. 3 and 4. Concentrations.
Equation 4 is given the negative concentration. That may be the reason of higher absorption at 545
nm conditions and dilutions gaps in samples were taken for finding of absorptions coefficient. When
considering the comparison graphs, which were generated base on table 02; Observable absorption
values higher than calculated values in both wavelengths. Standard deviation of 440nm data sets
were taken from both as observed and Calculated given as 0.063 and consequently 545 nm as 0.226.
By comparing both data sets can be come to decision as 545 nm data set indicates values are spread
out over a wider range. It may due to the residuals contains in cuvettes, due to electrostatic
interactions between molecules in close proximity, and scattering of light due to particulates in the
sample.
