in is titrated with . Formal potentials: , . The potential of the platinum indicator electrode at the equivalence point is

  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Answer: A

For a one-electron oxidant titrating a one-electron reductant, the equivalence point potential is the average of the two standard (formal) potentials: . This follows from adding the two Nernst equations and using , at equivalence.
