(Experiment 6) Which of the following statements are TRUE if the standardization titration (Part II) was over‑titrated? I. The molarity of DCIP would be lowered since the volume of titrant is in the denominator of the calculation. II. Too much DCIP was added in the titration, causing the Molarity of the ascorbic acid to be lowered. III. With a lower molarity of DCIP, the amount of Vitamin C will also be lower even if the titrations in Part II were done correctly.
I and III are true
(Experiment 6) Which of the following statement(s) is/are TRUE for the citric acid titration? I. Over-titrating means too much analyte was added to the reaction. II.

Over-titrating in this reaction produces a dark pink (or peach) solution.
II and III are true
(Experiment 7) Which statements explain the shape of the titration curve observed in lab? I. Initially, the conductivity is zero since the reaction has not begun. II.

After the endpoint, the conductivity increases due to the excess titrant.

Sully, Fay & Tia worked together on the redox titration of Fe+2 with MnO4- (Part I). Fay & Tia used the equivalence point volume of MnO4- as determined from titration graph. However, Sully used the volume of MnO4- when the solution first turned brown, which was a smaller volume than Fay & Tia's volume. Will Sully's calculations of the molarity of Fe+2 be different than Fay & Tia's calculation? How and why?
Sully's M of Fe+2 will be lower than the other two students.Since the volume of MnO4- is in the numerator for the calculation of M of Fe+2, the lower volume of MnO4- results in lower M of Fe+2
