Question

Write a mathematical expression for Standard Cell Potential.

Short Note

Solution

The standard cell potential can be written as:

`"E"_"cell"^0 = "E"_"red"^0  ("cathode") - "E"_"red"^0  ("anode")`

Omitting the subscript ‘red’, we have

`"E"_"cell"^0 = "E"^0  ("cathode") - "E"^0  ("anode")`
