A volume of x mL of 5 M
NaHCO3 solution was mixed with 10 mL of 2 M
H2CO3 solution to make an electrolytic buffer. If the same buffer was used in the following electrochemical cell to record a cell potential of 235.3 mV, then the value of x = ________ mL (nearest integer).
Sn(s)∣Sn(OH)62− (0.5 M)∣HSnO2− (0.05 M)∣OH−∣Bi2O3(s)∣Bi(s). Consider upto one place of decimal for intermediate calculations. [Given :
EHSnO2−∣Sn(OH)62−∘=−0.9 V,
EBi2O3∣Bi∘=−0.44 V,
pKa(H2CO3)=6.11,
F2.303RT=0.059 V, Antilog (1.29) = 19.5]
