Questions and Answers

What is the oxidizing agent in the determination of peroxides in volatile oil?

  • KI
  • HCl
  • Na2S2O3
  • Ascaridole (correct)

Why is cooling essential in the first step of the procedure?

  • To prevent oxidation of KI to I2 by light
  • To allow completion of the reaction
  • Because the reaction is vigorous at room temperature (correct)
  • To prevent volatilization of I2

What is the purpose of adding starch solution in the titration?

  • To liberate I2 from KI
  • To neutralize the acid medium
  • As an indicator near the end point (correct)
  • To prevent oxidation of KI to I2 by light
