Potentiometric titration, redox reaction, Nernst equation, quantitative analysis.
Principle
In a potentiometric titration, the equivalence point is detected by
monitoring the electromotive force (e.m.f.) of an electrochemical
cell formed by an indicator electrode coupled with a convenient
reference electrode. The potential of the indicator electrode, and
hence the e.m.f. of the cell, is a measure of the activity (approximately the concentration) of the ionic species in the electrolyte
solution.

It follows then that the e.m.f. of the cell at the equivalence point
is independent of the reaction concentrations.
