Predict whether Tit will disproportionate in aqueous solution, given the following standard reduction potential E^(0)TI // TI ==0.34 V, E^(0)TI^(3)//ETI-1.25 V

Answer»

Solution :`2TI^(+)+2eto2TI``E^(@)` = -0.34 V
`TItoTI^(3+)+2e``E^(@)` = -1.25 V
`3TI^(-)to2TI+TI^(3+)``E^(@)`= -1.59 V
Negative VALUE of Eo indicates that disproportion is not possible. THUS, Ti is more STABLE than `TI^(3+)`, hence `TI^(+)` will not oxidize.
