The reduction of indium(III) at dropping mercury electrode in aqueous as well as in 25% ethanol–water media in the presence of pyridine has been studied at a constant ionic strength (0.1 M KNO3) and at 30 and 40 °C. The reduction is diffusion-controlled but the electrode process is quasi-reversible in both media. The reversible half-wave potential values,E1/2r, have been obtained by Gelling’s method. The plot ofE1/2r versus pyridine concentration is a straight line and the number of ligands,j, was determined from the slope. This shows the formation of a single complex. The stability constant has been determined by Lingane’s method. In(III) forms one complex species with composition 1:1, [In(py)]3+. The values of thermodynamic parameters ΔG, ΔHand ΔSof the complexation reaction have also been determined at 30 °C.
