The formula for hydrated iron(II) sulfate is FeSO4⋅xH2O\text{FeSO}_4\cdot x\text{H}_2\text{O}FeSO4⋅xH2O.
The value of xxx is a whole number between 1 and 10. It can be determined by carrying out a titration with 0.0200 mol/dm30.0200\text{ mol/dm}^30.0200 mol/dm3 potassium manganate(VII) (KMnO4\text{KMnO}_4KMnO4) solution as follows:
The table shows the results:
| Titration number | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Volume in cm3\text{cm}^3cm3 of KMnO4\text{KMnO}_4KMnO4 solution added | 24.90 | 24.10 | 24.50 | 24.20 |
| Concordant titration results (✓\checkmark✓) |
Concordant results are those within 0.20 cm30.20\text{ cm}^30.20 cm3 of each other. Identify the concordant results in the table.
Using the concordant results, calculate the average (mean) volume of KMnO4\text{KMnO}_4KMnO4 solution added. Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
