1. [6 points]
a. Show with the aid of a form of the Nernst equation that when using a pH
sensitive glass electrode and reference electrode that the measured
potential is proportional to pH.
EI = sum of all other potential is measurement system, includes reference electrode and
potentials inside ion sensor electrode and these should be kept constant
Thus, E is directly proportional to the pH of the solution because the -log[H3O+] is just the
pH..
