TITRATION
Volumetric method of analysis which relies on
oxidation or reduction of analyte.
Initial Step in Redox Titration
The first step is to dissolve the sample which can
result in a mixed oxidation state.
Example: Dissolution of Fe results to
mixture of Fe+2 and Fe+3
Ag+
2S2O82- + 2H2O 4SO42- + O2(g) + 4H+
Auxillary Oxidizing Agents
Peroxide
not as strong as the other examples
must be used in acidic solutions
Two methods:
Iodimetry I2 is the titrant
Iodometry the substance is made to liberate iodine and
the iodine liberated is titrated by thiosulfate
I2 + 2S2O32- 2I- + S4O62-
IODIMETRY
The titrant is I2 and the analyte is a reducing agent
I2 is slightly soluble in water (0.00134 mol/L at 25oC) but
soluble in solutions containing I-
I2 + I- I3-
