acid-base titrations
In Lab 9, students performed acid-base titrations. Redox reactions can also be used in titrations. An example is the titration of ascorbic acid (H2C6H6O6) in lemon juice using triiodide (I3–). A starch indicator will turn the solution blue-black at the endpoint. The half-reactions involved are shown below.
C6H6O6 + 2 H+ + 2 e– | → | H2C6H6O6 | +0.06 V |
I3– + 2 e– | → | 3 I– | +0.53 V |
(a) What is the net redox reaction that occurs? (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit states-of-matter from your answer.)
(b) What is the stoichiometry of H2C6H6O6 to I3–?
(c) Use the data given below to determine the amount of ascorbic acid in lemon juice. (Note: The recommended daily allowance of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is 90 mg.)
Determine the errors (if any) with each galvanic cell set-up when the anode is on the left. (Select all that apply.)

Consider your experimental results from part A of this lab. Suppose your strongest reducing agent were added to your strongest oxidizing agent. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit states-of-matter from your answers.)
(a) Write the half-reaction for your strongest reducing agent.
Mg → Mg2+ + 2e1-
(b) Write the half-reaction for your strongest oxidizing agent
MnO4– + 8H+ + 5e– → Mn2+ +4H2O

Correct.
(c) Note the number of electrons in each half reaction.
In order to balance the number of electrons lost and gained, the oxidation half-reaction must be multiplied by and the reduction half-reaction must be multiplied by
(d) Write the net redox reaction
Assemble a battery, represented by the diagram below with the cathode in compartment A, with Sn2+/Sn and Cu2+/Cu couples in which the voltage reads positive. (Use the . Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit states-of-matter from your answer.)
(a) What half-reaction occurs in compartment A?
Sn → Sn2+ +2e–
(b) What half-reaction occurs in compartment B?
Cu2+ +2e– → Cu
(c) Write the net redox reaction.
Sn + Cu2+ → Sn2+ + Cu
