To solve the problem, we need to determine the percentage of iron (Fe) in copper pyrites (CuFeS₂) based on the provided data. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Reaction Copper pyrites (CuFeS₂) reacts with dilute sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) to produce copper sulfate (CuSO₄), iron(II) sulfate (FeSO₄), and sulfur dioxide (SO₂). The reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{CuFeS}_2 + 4 \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4 \rightarrow \text{CuSO}_4 + \text{FeSO}_4 + 2 \text{SO}_2 + 4 \text{H}_2\text{O} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the Moles of KMnO₄ Used We know that 10 mL of the leachate solution required 10 mL of 0.02 M KMnO₄. First, we need to calculate the moles of KMnO₄ used: ...
