 . 5 0 7 20 The vanadium in 50.0 cm3 of a 0.800 mol dm3 solution of NH4VO3 reacts with 506 cm3 of sulfur(IV) oxide gas measured at 20.0 C and 98.0 kPa. Use this information to calculate the oxidation state of the vanadium in the solution after the reduction reaction with sulfur(IV) oxide. Explain your working. The gas constant R = 8.31 J K1 mol1.
