Potentiometry is a technique used to measure the potential  voltage  of an electrochemical cell, which can be related to the concentration of a specific ion in the solution. In this case, we are interested in the concentration of chloride ions  Cl-  in a 0.1 M sodium chloride  NaCl  solution.In a sodium chloride solution, NaCl dissociates into sodium ions  Na+  and chloride ions  Cl- . The dissociation can be represented by the following equation:NaCl  Na+ + Cl-Since the stoichiometry of the reaction is 1:1, the concentration of chloride ions will be equal to the concentration of sodium chloride. Therefore, in a 0.1 M NaCl solution, the concentration of chloride ions  Cl-  will also be 0.1 M.
