Eb = E1-E2 _______________________ (1) Where Eb is the boundary potential E1 = potential developed at the interface between the exterior of the glass and the analyte solution
E2 = Potential developed at the interface between the internal solution and the interior of the glass. The boundary potential is related to the concentration of hydrogen ion in each of the solution by the Nernst-like equation.
Eb = E1 – E2 = 0.0592 log Cl / C2 _________________ (2) Where C1 = concentration of the analyte solution C2 = concentration of the internal solution For a glass pH electrode the hydrogen ion concentration of the internal solution is held constant. So eqn. (2) simplifies to
Eb = K + 0.0592 log C1 __________________(3) 1M K – 0.0592 pH where K = - 0.0592 log C 2
The boundary potential is then a measure of the hydrogen ion concentration of the external solution. 2) The potential of the internal Ag/AgCl reference electrode. E Ag/AgCl. 3) A small unpredictable contribution called the asymmetry potential, E asym. The sources of the symmetry potential include the following. (i) Differing conditions of strain in the two glass surfaces during manufacture (ii) Mechanical abrasion on the on the outer surface during use (iii) Chemical etching of the outer surface during use. ½M
The asymmetry potential changes slowly with time. The glass electrode potential can be written in the equation form as
EG = Eb + EAg/ AgCl + E asym __________________ (4) Substitution of eqn – (3) for Eb, gives EG = K+0.0592 log C1 + EAg/AgCl + E asym = K – 0.0592 log pH + E Ag/AgCl + E asym ___(5) or EG = Eo
G – 0.0592PpH __________________(6) where Eo
G = K + EAg/AgCl + E asym.
