Abstract
The values of the electrode potentials of the redox couple Fe(III) / Fe(II) and the half-wave potentials of the reactions Fe3+ + e– = Fe2+ и Fe2+ — e– = Fe3+ on the cyclic voltammogram of a platinum electrode in acid solutions containing Fe(III) salts have been measured to characterize the oxidizing ability of the H2SO4—H3PO4—H2O—Fe(III) system. The values of these experimentally obtained parameters are close. A decrease in the oxidizing ability of H2SO4 and H3PO4 mixtures containing Fe(III) with an increase in the molar fraction of H3PO4 in them occurs due to the formation of Fe(III) complexes with phosphate anions which are inferior to their hydrate and sulfate complexes in the oxidizing ability. The temperature coefficients of the electrode potential (dE / dt) of the redox couple Fe(III) / Fe(II) in the H2SO4—H2O, H2SO4—H3PO4—H2O and H3PO4–H2O systems were determined experimentally. The diffusion coefficients of Fe(III) in the studied solutions were calculated based on the Randles—Shevchik equation. The temperature dependence of the diffusion coefficients of Fe(III) cations is satisfactorily described by the Arrhenius equation. The parameters of this equation are calculated.
