SUMMARY
The concentration of Fe2+ can be accurately determined through redox titration using a cerium (IV) solution. In this case, 21.35 mL of 0.3136 M Ce4+ was required to titrate a 10.00 mL aliquot of Fe2+ to the endpoint. The balanced redox reaction is Fe2+ + Ce4+ → Fe3+ + Ce3+, which is essential for calculating the concentration of Fe2+.
