Question:

What volume of {eq}0.142\;M\;K_{2}Cr_{2}O_{7} {/eq} would be required to oxidize 70.0 mL of {eq}0.100\;M\;Na_{2}SO_{3} {/eq} in acidic solution? The products include {eq}Cr^{3+} {/eq} and {eq}SO_{4}^{2-} {/eq} ions.

Balanced Redox Reaction:

The amount of a certain compound required to react with a certain amount of another compound can be determined by comparing the number of moles of the compound with the stoichiometric coefficients of the compound present in the balanced chemical equation.
