The active agent in many hair bleaches is hydrogen peroxide. The amount of hydrogen peroxide in 17.0 g of hair bleach was determined by titration with a standard potassium permanganate solution.
2 MnO4-(aq) + 5 H2O2(aq) + 6 H+(aq) 5 O2(g) + 2 Mn2+(aq) + 8 H2O(l)
(a) How many moles of MnO4- were required for the titration if 43.4 mL of 0.109 M KMnO4 was needed to reach the end point?
mol
(b) How many moles of H2O2 were in the sample?
mol
