The table below lists the cell potentials for the 10 possible galvanic cells assembled from the metals A. B. C. D. and E. and their respective 1.00 M 2+ ions in solution. Using the data in the table, establish a standard reduction potential table similar to Table 17-1 in the text. Assign a reduction potential of 0.00 V to the half-reaction that falls in the middle of the series. You should get two different tables. Explain why, and discuss what you could do to determine which table is correct.
