Step by step solution

01

Definition of Electrode potential

Electrode potential (E) is the electromotive force that exists between two electrodes. Cell consists of two electrode, one is standard electrode (such as calomel electrode and standard hydrogen) (such as calomel electrode and standard hydrogen) where, the potential of an electrode connected to the positive terminal is denoted by the letter and the potential of the electrode attached to the negative terminal is E.

Find Electrode potential

Titration:

Ce4+Fe2+Ce3++Fe3+

Each portion of Ce4+consumes Ce4+and produces an equal number of moles of Ce3+and Fe3+as it is added. Extra unreacted role="math" localid="1663605916802" Fe2+rests in the solution prior to the equivalence point.

The point of equivalence comes at 50.0mL .

Before the equivalence point,

E=E++E=E++Ecalomal=0.526-0.05916logFec2+Fe3+---1

At 20.0 mL :

This is the method to the point of equivalence. As a result, 20.0/50.0 cerium is in the form of Fe3+, while 30.0/50.0 cerium is in the form of Fe3+. Using this value as a substitute in equation (1),

=0.526-0.05916log20/5030/50=0.526-0.05916log1.5=0.526-0.05916×0.1760=0.526-0.0104=0.516V

At 51.0 mL :

E=E++E=E++Ecalomel=1.70-0,05916logCe3+Ce4+-0.241---2

The first 50.0 mL of cerium are converted into Ce3+ and an excess of 1.0mLCe4+ is there. Therefore, Ce3+Ce4+=50.0mL1.0mL. Substitute this value in equation (2),

=1.70-0,05916logCe3+Ce4+-0.241=1.70-0,05916log50.050.1-0.241=1.70-0,05916×1.6989-0.241=1.70-0.1005-0.241=1.5995-0.241=1.358V
