Chapter 17, Problem 17.48SP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The conditions that makes cell potential to qualify as standard cell potential has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Cell potential:

The potential difference between two half cells in the electrochemical cell is called as cell potential ${\text{E}}_{\text{cell}}\text{.}$  The potential difference is due to the ability of the electrons to flow from one half cell to other half cell.  The movement of electrons between the electrodes is seen because of the chemical redox reaction that takes in the cell.
