Oxalic acid was added until excess, the solution was turned
to colourless solution.
3K2C2O4 + 2Fe(OH)3 + 3H2C2O4 → 2K3[Fe(C2O4)3].3H2O +
3H2O
The colourless solution was turn to pale green solution.
The product was obtained by suction filtration process which
is the solution was washed with 30 ml 95% ethanol slowly
and leave the solution to recrystallize.After that the green
crystal is filtered and washed with 1:1 ethano,/ water and
cooled acetone.The mass of green crystal obtained is
0.9777g , the theoretical yield is 6.2875 g and the
percentage yield is 15.55 % .
There is some precaution that we should practices while
doing an experiment is we need to clean all the apparatus
that we used for example conical flask.This is important
because there may have other substances left in the flask
and this can cause our product is contaminated so we dont
get the result.Next , while we are heat the solution of ferrous
ammonium sulphate and solution of oxalic acid dihydrate we
need to slow the hot plate to avoid the bumping of the
solution.While we are doing an experiment there occur
bumping of the solution , some of the solution was bumped
to outside of the conical flask.The mass loss due to the
bumping, so there is large different between 15.55% to
100%.
