The concentration of H2S in wastewater samples was determined by coulometric titration using Kl as mediator and I3 as "titrant". H2S(ag) + 13 (ag) + 2H2Ou) --> 2H3O*(aq) + 31 (ag) + S(s) A 50 mL wastewater sample was placed in a coulometric cell, added with excess KI and starch indicator. Electrolysis was carried out at a constant current of 84.6 mA for 386 s to reach the end point of the titration. What is the concentration of H2S in the sample (in ppm)?

Question
The concentration of H2S in wastewater samples was determined by coulometric titration
using Kl as mediator and I3 as "titrant".
H2S(as) + 13 (ag) + 2H2Ou) --> 2H3O*(aq) + 31 (ag) + S(s)
A 50 ml wastewater sample was placed in a coulometric cell, added with excess Kl and
starch indicator. Electrolysis was carried out at a constant current of 84.6 mA for 386 s to
reach the end point of the titration. What is the concentration of H2S in the sample (in
ppm)?
