The concentrations of Fe2+ and o-phen used in an experiment were 0.00136 M and 0.00407 M, respectively. If a student found a stoichimetric volume ratio of 2.0 mL o-phen to 1.0 mL Fe2+, what is the stoichiometric mole ratio of o-phen to Fe2+? Give your answer to two significant figures.
Fe+2 + 3o-Phen --------> Fe(Phen)32+
no of moles of Fe+2 = molarity * volume in L
= 0.00136*0.002 = 0.00000272 moles
no of moles of O-Phen = 0.000407*0.001 = 0.000000407moles
Ratio of Phen to Fe2+ = 3:1
= 3*0.000000407/0.00000272
= 0.45
