A solution is 0.0450 M in BiO+ and 0.040 M in Co2+ and has a pH of 2.50. What is the concentration of the more easily reduced cation at the onset of deposition of the less reducible one?
Can you show work and explain please?
the reduction equations for given cations will be
BiO+ + 2H+ + 3e- --> Bi(s) + H2O(l) ,E0 = +0.32 V
Co+2 + 2e --> Co(s) E0 = -0.277 V
So here Co+2 will act as reducing agent and will get oxidized as the reduction potential is low as compared to BiO+
The overall equation will be
Co --> Co+2 + 2e ]X 3
BiO+ + 2H+ + 3e- --> Bi(s) + H2O(l) ]X 2
.................................................................
3Co + 2BiO+ + 4H+ + 6e- --> 2Bi(s) + 2H2O(l) + 3Co+2 + 6e
final equation
3Co(s) + 2BiO+ + 4H+ --> 2Bi(s) + 2H2O(l) + 3Co+2
For a redox reaction we use Nernst equation for calculating
E = E0 - RT / nF log Q
F = 96485
R = 8.314
T = 298 K
For Cobalt
E = -0.277- 0.0592 / 2 log [1/[Co+2]]
E = -0.277 - 0.0296 log [1/ 0.040]
E = -0.318 V
The Nernst equation for the BiO+ will be
E = E0 - 0.0592 / n log [1/[BiO+][H+]2]
When cobalt starts deposition
ECo = EBiO+ = -0.318 V
pH = 2.5
[H+] = 0.00316
Putting values
-0.318 = 0.32 - 0.0592 / 3 log [1 / [BiO+ ] [ 0.00316]^2
-0.638 = -0.0592 / 3 log [1 / [BiO+ ] [ 0.00316]^2
32.33 = log [1 / [BiO+ ] [ 0.00316]^2 ]
Taking antilog
2.137 X 10^32 = [1 / [BiO+ ] [ 0.00316]^2
4.68 X 10^-33 = [BiO+ ] [ 0.00316]^2
4.68 X 10^-28 = [BiO+]
