Titration is a procedure for determining the concentration of a solution by reacting with another solution which is known to be concentrated (usually a standard solution). Determination of the endpoint/equivalence point of the reaction can use indicators according to the appropriate pH range

Reaction

5Na2C2O4(aq) + 2KMnO4(aq) + 8H2SO4(aq) ---> 2MnSO4(aq) + K2SO4(aq) + 5Na2SO4(aq) + 10CO2(g) + 8H2O(1)

The end point ⇒titrant and analyte moles equal

titrant : potassium permanganate-KMnO4

analyte : sodium oxalate - Na2C2O4

so moles of KMnO4 = moles of Na2C2O4

moles of Na2C2O4(mass = 0.2640 g, MW=134 g/mol) :

$\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}\\\\mol=\dfrac{0.264}{134 g/mol}\\\\mol=0.002$

From equation, mol ratio Na2C2O4 : KMnO4 = 5 : 2, so mol KMnO4 :

$\tt \dfrac{2}{5}\times 0.002=0.0008$

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coeffici

Brut [27]

<u>Question:</u>

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K

<u>Answer:</u>

The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is

$E=E_{0}-0.0514 \mathrm{V} \ln \gamma$
