3. Discussion
a. Redox titration
1) Reaction of metal and metal nitrat solution
The indications that indicate that the redox is spontaneous : release
gas bubbles, occurring discoloration of metal and solution of oxidation.
At first, we dissolved Al in a solution of Pb(NO
3
)
2
, Zn(NO
3
)
2
, NaNO
3
,
and AgNO
3
. There is no reacted between all of solution. Because Al has
greater potential reduction.
The reaction between Al metal and metal nitrat solution:

The second, we dissolved Cu in a solution of Pb(NO
3
)
2
, Zn(NO
3
)
2
,
NaNO
3
, and AgNO
3
. Cu reacted only with AgNO
3
. They released some
gas bubbles and discoloration of Cu. It corresponded with volta series.
Ag was located right next to Cu. Pb, Zn, and Na were located left next
to Cu. So they couldnt reacted.
The reaction is:
Cu

+ Pb(NO

)

The last, we dissolved Fe in a solution of Pb(NO
3
)
2
, Zn(NO
3
)
2
,
NaNO
3
, and AgNO
3
. There is no reacted between all of solution.
From the observation data, we know that the amount of gas bubbles
formed didnt same. We could arrange the metal like volta series. Li K
Ba Ca Na Mg Al Mn Zn Cr Fe Cd Co Ni Sn Pb H Sb Bi Cu Hg Ag Pt
Au.
The left position of metal in the sequence, then the more reactive
metal (easier to release electrons).

The reaction is:

2) Reaction of metal and HCl solution
In this experiment, we insert some metals like Cu, Fe, Mg, Zn and
Pb into HCl solution. From the experiment, there are two metals that
cannot react with HCl solution. They are Cu metal and Pb metal. Cu
metal cannot react with HCl solution because Cu metal position in volta
series is Hs right. And for Pb metal, based on the theory, Pb metal can
react with HCl solution. But in this experiment Pb could not. Perhaps in
the surface of Pb metal, there is a few bubbles but we cannot see it.
The reaction is:
Fe

This reaction is done to shown happened of redox reaction. In the
experiment, we react H
2
O
2
solution with H
2
SO
4
solution, KI solution,
and starch solution. The color of solution is yellow-red-brown. In this
case, oxygen happens reduction and Iodium happens oxidation. The
reaction is :

4) FeCl

+ H
2
SO
4
+ KI heated + starch :
This experiment also shown redox reaction. In this case, FeCl
3
is
reacted with H
2
SO
4
to form acid solution and then react with KI
solution. Because this reaction cannot react in room temperature, so the
solution is heating. After heating the solution becomes yellow and there
is black colored precipitate. The reaction is :


5) Zn + CuSO
4
:
When Zn metal insert into CuSO
4
solution, Zn can react with
CuSO
4
. There are some bubbles and Cu becomes black. But, when Cu
insert into ZnSO
4
there are no reaction. It is because E of Zn metal is
fewer than E of Cu metal. The reaction is:
Zn
(s)
+ CuSO
4 (aq)
ZnSO

+ Cu

Cu

b. Electrolysis of KI solution
On next experiment, we use electrode C. after 15 minutes, there are
many changes. In anode, happens leach electrode and the color becomes
yellow. In the catode there are some bubbles and colourless. And then we
take some solution of anode and add starch solution and CHCl
3
solution.
When we add CHCl
3
solution, the color becomes orange and when we add
starch solution, it becomes green.
On the other hand, we take cathode solution and we add PP and FeCl
3
solution. When we add PP solution it becomes pink and when add FeCl
3

solution it becomes red. The reaction is:

4. Conclussion and Suggestion
Conclusion :
1. Redox reactions are characterized by changes of oxidation number
2. The order of reactivity of metal from highest to the lowest is Na
Mg Al Zn Fe Pb H Cu Ag. The metal in the left side can reduct the
metal in its right side.
3. The value of E positive shown the reaction is spontaneously.
4. Electrolysis of KI solution
In the cathode formed H

the solution is base (Fe(OH)

Electrolysis of CuSO

solution
In the cathode Cu

C electrode is inert. So, the negative ion will be oxidized
except remaining of oxy acid. Like SO

2-
the water
(H
2
O) will be oxidized.
Suggestion :
1. Before doing experiment should be understand about the theory of the
experiment.
2. Be careful to use the material of the experiment.

reaction.
2) There are many gas bubble in cathode signify that in the solution of was a
