The electrogravimetric method by controlling the cathode potential is used for the separation of ions in a solution buffered to 0.100 M and pH 1.5 in terms of both Bi3+ and Sn2+. Find the concentration of the more easily reduced species as soon as the more difficult to reduce species begins to decompose.

Sn2+ + 2 e- ↔ Sn (k)             E0 = - 0,136 V

BiO+ +  2 H+ + 3 e- ↔ Bi (k) E0 = 0,320 V
