To determine the concentration of glucose in the packaged juice industry, 50 mL of sample is analyzed. Analysis of it (and other reducing sugars) was carried out there using triiodide back titration. An excess volume of 75.00 mL of 0.338 M triiodide standard solution in alkaline medium was added to the glucose solution. The resulting solution was acidified and the excess triiodide was titrated with 18.37 mL of standard 0.526 M thiosulfate

Question

To determine the concentration of glucose in the packaged juice industry, 50 mL of sample is analyzed. Analysis of it (and other reducing sugars) was carried out there using triiodide back titration. An excess volume of 75.00 mL of 0.338 M triiodide standard solution in alkaline medium was added to the glucose solution. The resulting solution was acidified and the excess triiodide was titrated with 18.37 mL of standard 0.526 M thiosulfate solution. Calculate is the concentration in ppm in the sample.

In alkaline medium: Glucose (C6H12O6) / Gluconate (C6H11O7-), Triiodide (I3- ) / Iodide (I-)

In acid medium: Thiosulfate (S2O32-) / Tetrathionate (S4O62-), Triiodide (I3- ) / Iodide (I-)
