Cu2+ + 2e- Cu(s) E° = 0.34 V
V2+ + 2e- V(s) E° = -1.20 V
In a galvanic cell, the copper compartment contains a copper electrode and [Cu2+] = 1.00 M. The vanadium compartment contains a vanadium electrode and V2+ at an unknown concentration. The compartment containing the vanadium (1.00 L of solution) was titrated with 0.0800 M H2EDTA2-, resulting in the reaction:
H2EDTA2- + V2+
VEDTA2- + 2H+
The potential of the cell was monitored to determine the stoichiometric point for the process, which occurred when 500.0 mL of H2EDTA2- solution was added. At the stoichiometric point, Ecell was 1.98 V. The solution was buffered at pH 10.00.
A) Calculate Ecell before titration was carried out.
B) Calculate the equilibrium constant K for the titration reaction.
C) Calculate Ecell at the halfway point of titration.
