Solve Redox Titration Problem w/ NaNO2 & KMnO4 - Help Needed!

[Kail]

I have many problesm with this question. Can someone help me please?

In a titration of patasium permanganate soloution with acidified sodium nitrate solution

MnO4- + BO2- H+ -----> Mn+2 + NO3- +H2O

45 ml of 0.05M of KMnO4 reacts complitely with 20.0 mL of NaNO2 solution.

Calculate the molat concentration of sodium nitrate.

Please give me a hand with this. I relly need help to pass my chimetry curse.

You must start with balanced equation. Once it is balanced calculate number of moles permanganate used and stoichiometric amount of sodium nitrate. Latter divided by 0.02L will give you concentration.

Sorry but I kinda dontt understand how to get the stoichiometric amount of sodium nitrate. And what do I have to divide by 0.02L. Sorry it's just I kinda not that good at chemestry.

See stoichiometric calculations lecture to find out how to calculate amount of nitrate. Go for moles, not for mass. Number of moles divided by volume is just a molar concentration which you are asked for.
