​

Answer 1

Answer:

if the stanfard oxidation potential of electrode +0.76v then it's standard reduction potential is

Answer 2

Given: Standard oxidation potential of electrode: +0.76V

To Find: Standard reduction potential of that electrode.

Explanation:

If the standard oxidation potential is +0.76 V, it indicates that the metal/electrode has the tendency to get oxidized.

It can be explained in by given reaction:

$AB --> A^{+} + B^{-}$

Here, A is getting oxidized by losing one electron.

If we reverse this reaction:

$A^{+} --> A$

A+ is getting reduced, so the reduction potential would be:

$E_{R} = -(E_{Ox} )\\E_{R} = -0.76V$

Hence, the standard reduction potential would be -0.76 V.
