Question

What is the standard cell potential for the galvanic cell where zinc is oxidized and copper ions are reduced, given the standard electrode potentials of Zn²⁺/Zn = -0.76 V and Cu²⁺/Cu = 0.34 V?

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Explanation

The cell reaction is Zn(s) + Cu²⁺(aq) → Zn²⁺(aq) + Cu(s) . E°cell = E°cathode - E°anode = 0.34 - (-0.76) = 1.10 V .
