Potentiometric Titrations

Potentiometric titration is one of the important titration methods and is mainly carried out to characterize acid solutions. It follows a method similar to that of the normal titration technique, but the main difference is that there is no indicator used in the potentiometric titrations. Instead of using an indicator, electrodes are employed for monitoring the whole titration process. A scientist named Robert Behrend did the potentiometric titration for the first time, and it was done using the mercurous solution and potassium chloride.

A metal "X" is used as a “sacrificial” anode on hulls of salt water vessels made of iron. The effect is to reverse the oxidation of iron to iron (II) by causing X to oxidize to the X ion. Calculate the voltage (in V, to two decimal places) for this reaction if it takes place under standard conditions. The standard reduction potential for X is -1.09 V (minus 1.09 V).
