H2S content can be determined quantitatively via coulometric titration. In this case, I3 was used as titrant while KI serves as mediator. Assume that 50 mL of unknown sample was pipetted into a coulometric cell. Subsequently, excess KI was added and titration began. A small amount of starch powder was added after 5 minutes to visualise the titration end point. Given a constant current of 94.6 mA was applied throughout the entire electrolysis process which took 406 s to finish.

lon selective electrode (ISE) is an electrochemical device for the selective determination of the concentration/activity of an ion based on the principle of potentiometry. Typical examples include pH electrodes and the fluoride ISE. To use an ISE, the potential of the ISE is first measured with a range of solutions containing different concentrations of the analyte. Then, a calibration curve is constructed by plotting the potential versus log₁0[ion]. For an ideal Ca²+ ion selective electrode, which of the following slopes is the one that you would expect? (T = 25 °C) Select one: a. -30 mV/dec O b. O c. 30 mV/dec 59 mV/dec O d. -59 mV/dec
