Determine the percentage of iron in the ore


A sample of iron ore which is having 3.33-g, transformed to a solution of iron(II) sulfate, FeSO4, and this solution is titrated with the 0.150 M K2Cr2O7 (potassium dichromate). If it needs 41.4 mL of potassium dichromate solution to titrate the iron (II) sulfate solution, determine the percentage of iron in the ore? The reaction is:

6FeSO4 (aq) +K2Cr2O7 (aq) +7H2SO4 (aq) →
       3Fe2(SO4)3 (aq) +Cr2(SO4)3 (aq) +7H2O (l) + K2SO4 (aq)
