Redox titration curves sketching

Sketching a Redox Titration Curve As we have done for acid-base and complexo-metric titrations, we now show how to quickly sketch a redox titration curve using a minimum number of calculations. 

How to sketch a redox titration curve see text for explanation. 

Where Is the Equivalence Point In discussing acid-base titrations and com-plexometric titrations, we noted that the equivalence point is almost identical with the inflection point located in the sharply rising part of the titration curve. If you look back at Figures 9.8 and 9.28, you will see that for acid-base and com-plexometric titrations the inflection point is also in the middle of the titration curve s sharp rise (we call this a symmetrical equivalence point). This makes it relatively easy to find the equivalence point when you sketch these titration curves. When the stoichiometry of a redox titration is symmetrical (one mole analyte per mole of titrant), then the equivalence point also is symmetrical. If the stoichiometry is not symmetrical, then the equivalence point will lie closer to the top or bottom of the titration curve s sharp rise. In this case the equivalence point is said to be asymmetrical. Example 9.12 shows how to calculate the equivalence point potential in this situation. 

Calculate or sketch (or both) titration curves for the following (unbalanced) redox titration reactions at 25 °C. Assume that the analyte is initially present at a concentration of 0.0100 M and that a 25.0-mL sample is taken for analysis. The titrant, which is the underlined species in each reaction, is 0.0100 M.
