In Lab 9, students performed acid-base titrations. Redox reactions can also be used in titrations. An example is the titration of ascorbic acid (H2C6H6O6) in lemon juice using triiodide (I3http://www.webassign.net/images/thinsp.gif). A starch indicator will turn the solution blue-black at the endpoint. The half-reactions involved are shown below.

C6H6O6 + 2 H+ + 2 e

 → 

H2C6H6O6

    +0.06 V

I3 + 2 e

 → 

3 I

    +0.53 V
