Question

A 0.1017-g sample of KBrO3 (MW = 167 g/mole) was dissolved in dilute HCl and treated with an unmeasured excess of KI. The liberated iodine required 39.75 mL of a sodium thiosulfate solution. Calculate the molar concentration of the Na2S2O3

BrO3 - + 6I + 6HCl → Br - + 3I2 + 6KCl + 3H2O

 I2 + Na2S2O3  → 2NaI + Na2S4O6
