Chapter 19, Problem 79AP

(choose chapter or problem)

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