Answer: Thus the standard potential for an electrochemical cell with the cell reaction that follows is 0.84 V.
Explanation:
Standard potential for an electrochemical cell is given by:
= standard electrode potential =
The values have to be reduction potentials.
Given: Reduction potential for atom X:
The element A with negative reduction potential will lose electrons undergo oxidation and thus act as anode.The element X with positive reduction potential will gain electrons undergo reduction and thus acts as cathode.
= standard electrode potential =
Thus the standard potential for an electrochemical cell with the cell reaction that follows is 0.84 V.
