Question:medium

500 mL of \(1.2\) M KI solution is mixed with 500 mL of \(0.2\) M \( \mathrm{KMnO_4} \) solution in basic medium. The liberated iodine is titrated with standard \(0.1\) M \( \mathrm{Na_2S_2O_3} \) solution in the presence of starch indicator till the blue colour disappears. The volume (in L) of \( \mathrm{Na_2S_2O_3} \) consumed is ________ (nearest integer).

Show Hint

In iodometric titrations, always convert the oxidising agent to equivalent moles of iodine first, then relate iodine to thiosulphate.
