Calcium levels in blood can be determined by adding oxalate ion to precipitate calcium oxalate, CaC
2O
4, followed by dissolving the precipitate in aqueous acid and titrating the oxalic acid (H
2C
2O
4) with KMnO
4.
5 H2C2O4(aq) + 2 MnO4-(aq) + 6 H+(aq)
10 CO2(g) + 2 Mn2+(aq) + 8 H2O(l)
How many milligrams of Ca
2+ are present in 10.0 mL of blood if
21.03 mL of
0.000971 M KMnO
4 solution is needed for the titration?
