The Nernst Equation
• As reactions proceed concentrations of products increase and reactants decrease.
• Reach equilibrium where Q = K and Ecell = 0
• 0 = Eº - RTln(K) nF
• Eº = RTln(K) nF
• nF Eº = ln(K) RT

Types of Electrode (continued)

The Nernst Equation •As reactions proceed concentrations of products increase](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061513/5f0229d87e708231d402e2d0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Varieties of Cell
• The two basic types are concentration cells and chemical cells.
• Concentration cells are either electrolyte concentration cells, where the electrode compartments are identical except for the concentrations of the electrolytes, or electrode concentration cells, in which the electrodes themselves have different concentrations, such as amalgams or gas electrodes at different pressures.
• Most cells are chemical cells.

The Nernst Equation •As reactions proceed concentrations of products increase](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061513/5f0229d87e708231d402e2d0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Concentration Cells
• A concentration cell derives its potential
from the difference in concentration
between the right and left sides.
• M|M+(aq, L)||M+(aq, R)|M
• The cell reaction is M+(aq, R) ! M+(aq, L)
• Using the Nernst equation, E = Eo -
(RT/nF) ln Q
• But Eo = 0 ! (Do you see why?)
• ln Q = aL/aR
• So for a conc. cell, E = - (RT/nF) ln (aL/aR)

Standard Electrode Potentials
• Eocell can be found from DrG
o using the
equation DrGo = -nFEo
– (or in general, DrG = -nFE)
• But Eocell can also be found from values of Eo for the two
electrodes involved. – Since it is impossible to measure the potential of
one electrode alone, these are all relative to H.
• Eocell = Eo
R - Eo
L

The Nernst Equation •As reactions proceed concentrations of products increase](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061513/5f0229d87e708231d402e2d0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Hydrogen Electrode and pH
• The potential of a hydrogen electrode is directly
proportional to the pH of the solution. Consider
the calomel-hydrogen cell Hg(l)| Hg2Cl2(s)|
Cl!(aq)|| H+(aq)|H2(g)|Pt , for which the cell
reaction is Hg2Cl2(s) + H2(g) ! 2 Hg(l) + 2
Cl!(aq) + 2 H+(aq)
• If the H2(g) is at standard pressure and the
chloride ion activity is constant and
incorporated into Eo†, the Nernst equation
becomes E = Eo† - (RT/F) ln a(H+) = Eo† +
(RT ln 10/F) x pH = Eo† + (59.15 mV) x pH
• So the pH can be determined from the cell
potential.

The Electrochemical Series
• A species with a low standard reduction potential
has a thermodynamic tendency to reduce a
species with a high standard reduction potential.
– More briefly, low reduces high.
– Equivalently, high oxidizes low.
• This is the basis for the activity series of
metals.
• Other couples can also be fitted into the activity
series.

Principle
• It mesures the change in potential , can be
used for all kinds of titration :
1- acid base
2-redox
3-complexometry.

When it is used
• It is used when the endpoints are very
difficult to determine , either when:
1- very diluted solution.
2-coloured and turbid solution
3-absence of a suitable indicator

• It is a regular titration but instead of the
indicator we used the potentiometer
• Electrode wil masure the PH of the media
