Question

Mention the relationship between the standard cell potential and standard electrode potentials of the two electrodes.

Answer 1

The relationship between the standard cell potential and standard electrode potentials of the two electrodes is given by:

\[\ce{E{^{\circ}_{cell}} = E{^{\circ}_{cathode}} - E{^{\circ}_{anode}}}\]

Where \[\ce{E{^{\circ}_{cathode}}}\] and \[\ce{E{^{\circ}_{anode}}}\] are the standard potentials (standard reduction potentials) of the cathode (reduction electrode) and anode (oxidation electrode), respectively.
