INTRODUCTION
THEORY
Titrasi potensiometri bermanfaat untuk
menentukan titik akhir titrasi yang tidak dapat
ditentukan menggunakan suatu indikator
Memiliki akurasi dan presisi yang tinggi
In a situation, where a metal M is placed in a
solution containing its own ions Mn+, an
electrode potential is established across the
two electrodes, whose actual value is
provided by the Nernst equation as shown
below :
THEORY
GENERAL
CONSIDERATIONS
The potentiometric titrations invariably cover a broadspectrum of chemical reactions that may be classified as
follows :
Neutralization reactions,
Redox reactions,
Precipitation reactions,
Complexation reactions, and
Potentiometric titrations in non-aqueous solvents
Neutralization Reactions
Advantages
It is found to be useful to titrate a mixture of acids having a significant
difference in their strengths, for instance : HCl and CH3COOH
(alcoholic). In this case, the first-break in the titration curve signifies that
the stronger of the two acids i.e., HCl, gets neutralized ; whereas, the
secondbreak represents the entire completion (i.e., HCl + CH3COOH)
In order to get fruitful and reproducible results it is quite necessary that
the strengths between either
the two acids or bases in question must vary by at least 105 to 1.
Demerits of the Method
The neutralization reactions often found to be giving unsatisfactory results
in the following two instances. They are :
(a) when both the acid and the base are appreciably weak, and
(b) when either the acid or the base is very weak (i.e., K < 108) and also
the prevailing solutions are dilute.
Neutralization Reactions
Redox Reactions
Titrasi Potensiometri melibatkan reaksi redox
Nilai potensil di pengaruhi oleh perbandingan konsentrasi zat
tereduksi dan teroksidasi dari spesi ioniknya
Contoh
Titrasi antara Fe2+ dengan kalium permanganat atau potasium
dikromat
Elektroda yang digunakan : Pt
Oksidator biasanya ada didalam buret
Precipitation Reactions
Titrasi potensiometri dimana konsentrasi ioniknya ditentukan oleh
penurunan kelarutan spesi yangmenghasilkan suatu bentuk tidak
terlarut melaui suatu reaksi presipitasi.
Contoh
Titrasi Ag+ dengan senyawa halida seperti Cl-,, Br-, atau I- atau dengan
senyawa SCN Pemilihan elektrode
Elektrode referensi :SCE, Silver-silver chloride elektroda
Elektroda indikator: Peratk Pt,
( elektrode harus mudah berkeseimbangan dengan ion presipitat)
Jembatan garam
Untuk penentuan suatu Halida jembatan garam harus dijenukan
dengan potasium nitrat
Note dapat juga dikembangkan ion selektive presipitat
Complexation Reactions
Titrasi potensiometri dimana terjadi interaksi antara suatu presipitat
terlarut dengan suatu perekasi secara berlebih sehingga menghasilkan
suatu senyawa kompleks
Contoh
Pada reaksi tersebut pada tahap satu dihasikan suatu presipitat AgCN,
presipitat ini akan larut dengan penambahan KCN berlebih sehingga
membentuk suatu senyawa kompleks [Ag(CN)2].
Sehingga pada titrasi dibagi menjadi 3 bagian
Up to End-point (titik ahir awal titrasi )
CN- akan dirubah menjadi suatu sennyawa kompleks dengan Ag+
At the end point (titik ahir titrasi)
Dilihat dari visuallisai melalui perbedaan dan kenaikan potensial sel
Complexation Reactions
Choice of Electrodes :
Indicator Electrode : Silver electrode ;
Reference Electrodes : Colomel electrode ; Mercury-mercury (I)
sulphate electrode.
Salt-Bridge : A saturated solution of KNO3 or K2SO4 isolated from
the reference electrode
Potentiometric Titration in
Non-Aqueous Solvents
Metode ini digunakan untuk menentukan titik ahir titrasi pada media non
air. Sekala Mv lebih digunakan daripada sekala pH, karena
Skala pH berdasarkan bufer tidak ada memiliki makna yang logis
pada media non air
Nilai potensial pada media non air melampaui nilai skala pH
Kurva hasil titrasi umumnya lebih atau kurang empiris dan menghasilkan
deteksi titik ahir yang dependable dan reprodusibilitas yang lebih
bermakna.
Choice of Electrodes :
Indicator Electrodes : Glass electrode ;
Reference Electrode : Calomel electrode ;
Salt-Bridge : A saturated solution of KCl

potensial selnya sangat tinggi, sebagai fugsi E [Cu2+], kemudian terjadi
penurunan potensial ketika Cu2+ bereaksi dengan EDTA
It is used for any metal except Fe, Cr, Co, Ni WHY?
Because:
1- mudah teroksidasi oleh udara sehingga nilai potensial tidak stabil
2- dapat mengalami deformasi kristal dan menimbulkan laisan oksida
4) Redox electrode:
Pada tipe ini kesetimbangan dicapai antara oxidan dan reduktan pada

Indicator electrodes
An indicator electrode is that which its potential is sensitive to the
concentration of one of the participant or products of reaction.
Its potential changes rapidly with the change of the particular ion.,It must:
Give rapid response.
Its response is reproducible.
Now when it is connected with a reference electrode, the change in e.m.f. of
the formed cell will be due to the change of indicator electrode potential,
which in terns reflects the change of the ion under investigation.
Indicator electrodes are classified into two classes:
Electrodes where electron transfer takes place at the electrode surface.
i.e. redox reaction occurs (metallic electrodes).
Electrodes where (charge) ion exchange takes place at a specific
membrane surface.
i.e. ion selective electrodes or specific ion electrodes.
N.B:
We must notice that electrodes potential are related to activity.
The most important application of this method is the determination of pH.
The observed potential of the cell employed during the measurement is:
Eobs = Eref + Ej Eind
where Eref , Ej and
Eind are the potentials of reference electrode, liquid
junction and indicator electrode.
It depends upon:
Charge mobilities
Concentration of the ionic species
Nature of the solvent on each side of the boundary
pH dependent
potentiometric measurements.
How to minimize liq.junct. Pot.?
By using a high concentration of a salt, its ions has nearly equal mobility
e.g. KCl or KNO3 (K+ = 74, Cl- = 73, NO3- = 76)
Use high concentration of salt for preparation of the bridge to reduce the
effect of difference in migration rates of other ions in the electrode solution.
We may use:
A- Electrodes of the First type:
For the determination of a cation (metal ion); where the best
electrode used fora cation is its elemental form.
e.g. in determination of Cu2+ with EDTA , a copper rod is the
indicator electrode, its potential is directly affected by the analyte
concentration as indicated from:
Nernest eq:
E25oC = Eo - 0.059/n log 1 / [Cu2+] so E [Cu2+]

Disadvantages:
As N.H.E. in addition:
It can not be used, presence of oxidant or reductant will interfere with the
equilibrium and function of the electrode.
It can not be used in presence of catalytic poisons as S2- which interfere
with the catalytic activity of pt black).
It can not be used in reactions involving volatile constituents e.g. H2CO3,
H2S because bubbling of H2 gas causes their volatilization.
Nernst equation:
E Sb0/ Sb2O3 = E0 - 0.059/6 log [Sb0]2 / [Sb2O3] [H+]6
E 25oC= E0 - 0.059/6 log [Sb0]2 / [Sb2O3] - 0.059/6 log 1/ [H+]6
[Sb0] / [Sb2O3] is considered as unity, as log 1= zero
E 25oC= E0 - 0.059/6 log 1/ [H+]6 , E 25oC= E0 + 0.059 log [H+]
E25oC = E0 - 0.059 pH
Sb2O3
Sb0
Advantages:
Easy to be used cheep and durable.
It can be used for determination of pH of volatile acids (H2CO3)
Disadvantages
Can only be used within pH range 2-8, at lower pH Sb2O3 dissolves and at
higher pH Sb0 dissolves.
It can not be used in presence of oxidizing, reducing agents.
It can not be used in presence of complexing agents e.g. taratric acid because
it gives antimony tartarate complex.
It can not be used in presence of noble metals which will be displaced by
antimony.
Quinhydrone Electrode
:
Is formed by the addition of quinone and hydroquinone in equimolar
proportion to the solution to be analyzed and an inert electrode (pt) is
immersed in the solution.
Electrode reaction: Q + 2H+ + 2e
H 2Q
Mode of action: electron transfer electrode
Nernst equation:
E Q/ H2Q = E0 - 0.059/2 log [H2Q] / [Q] [H+]2
E 25oC= E0 - 0.059/2 log [H2Q] / [Q] - 0.059/2 log 1/ [H+]2
[Q] / [H2Q] =1,as they are in equimolar proportions.
As log 1= zero
E 25oC= E0 - 0.059/2 log 1/ [H+]2 , E 25oC= E0 + 0.059 log [H+]
E25oC = E0 - 0.059 pH
Quinhydrone Electrode
Advantages:
Easily prepared and used.
Not affected by catalytic poisoning.
It comes to equilibrium rapidly.
It can be used for determination of pH of volatile acids (CO2).
Disadvantages
Can not be used at pH > 8 because H2Q is dissociated, altering the pH
of the solution.
It can not be used in presence of oxidizing and reducing agents.
Atmospheric oxygen slowly oxidizes H2Q, therefore, it must be freshly
prepared.
Glass Electrode:
This the mostly widely used electrode for measuring the pH.
It is ion selective electrodes which is specific for hydrogen ion.
Ion selective electrodes respond to activity more than concentration of ions:
a = [Mn+] fa
where: a is the activity ,
[Mn+] is the molar concentration of ion and
fa is the activity coefficient.
fa 1/ ionic strength of the solution.
How to measure E:
The glass electrode is immersed in the unknown solu and is coupled to
saturated calomel electrode then connect both electrodes with a
potentiometer.
Advantages:
It can be used in presence of oxidizing, reducing and complexing agents,
catalytic poisons and noble metals.
used in solutions containing volatile constituents.
Disadvantages:
It is fragile.
Can not be used in presence of dehydrating agents. e.g. concentrated
sulphuric acid, ethyl alcohol.
Can not be used above pH 12 (alkaline error) as Interference from sodium
ions occurs i.e. sodium ion exchange together with H+ (glass membrane
becomes permeable to sodium).It takes certain time to reach equilibrium
due to glass resistance.
