Chapter 17, Problem 160MP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The standard reduction potential table is established, a reduction potential of $0.0\text{0 V}$ to the half-cell reaction that falls in the middle of the series is to be assigned and a correct table is determined.

Concept introduction: Cell potential is defined as the measure of energy per unit charge that is the potential difference in an electrochemical cell containing two half cells available from the redox reaction to carry out the reaction The limited form of galvanic cell is concentration cell consists of two equivalent half-cells of the same composition.

To determine: The standard reduction potential table, a reduction potential of $0.0\text{0 V}$ to the half-cell reaction that falls in the middle of the series and a correct table of reduction potential.
