When 25.00 mL of unknown were passed through a Jones reductor, molybdate ion (MoO₄²⁻) was converted into Mo³⁺. The filtrate required 16.43 mL of 0.01033 M KMnO₄ to reach the purple end point.
MnO₄⁻ + Mo³⁺ → Mn²⁺ + MoO₂²⁺
A blank required 0.01 mL. Balance the reaction. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit states-of-matter.)
Find the molarity of molybdate in the unknown.
