The table lists common half-reactions along with the standard reduction potential associated with each half-reaction. These standard reduction potentials are all relative to some standard.


  • What is the standard (zero point)?
    If is positive for a half-reaction, what does it mean?
    If is negative for a half-reaction, what does it mean?
    Which species in table is most easily reduced? Least easily reduced?
    If the reverse of the half-reactions in the table are the oxidation half-reactions, how are standard oxidation potentials determined
