Chapter 18, Problem 18.82

(choose chapter or problem)

For a number of years it was not clear whether mercury(I) ions existed in solution as Hg1 or as Hg2 21. To distinguish between these two possibilities, we could set up the following system: Hg(l) 0 soln A 0 0 soln B0 Hg(l) where soln A contained 0.263 g mercury(I) nitrate per liter and soln B contained 2.63 g mercury(I) nitrate per liter. If the measured emf of such a cell is 0.0289 V at 18C, what can you deduce about the nature of the mercury(I) ions?
