2.5 - Transition Metals 2 Flashcards
Half Equation: Reduction of VO²⁺ |> V³⁺
VO²⁺ + 2H⁺ + e⁻ |> V³⁺ + H₂O
Colour of VO²⁺?
Blue
Equation for the reduction of VO₂⁺ |> VO²⁺ by Zinc in Acid conditions?
2VO₂⁺ + 4H⁺ + Zn |> 2VO²⁺ + 2H₂O + Zn²⁺
Two factors that affect Redox potential?
Different ligands bind to metal ion differently
pH - generally more easily reduced in acidic conditions therefore more positive redox potential
Steps for: Manganate Titration
|>Fill a Burette w/a standard solution of Potassium Manganate(VII)
|>Pipette known volume of unknown solution into conical flask
|>Add equal volume of H₂SO₄
|>Add Potassium Manganate(VII) until end point is reached
|>Perform rough titration & then accurate ones until concordant titres are achieved
Colour of V²⁺?
Violet
Colour of V³⁺?
Green
Define: Redox potential of an ion
Measure of how easily an ion is reduced to a lower oxidation state
The more ____ the redox potential, the more likely the ion is to be ____ therefore the ion is less stable?
Positive
Reduced
Overall Equation: Redox of Fe²⁺ w/ MnO₄⁻
