 \large{ \boxed{ \underline{ \mathcal{ \red{Electrode\:\:Potential}}}}}

Electrical potential (commonly known as voltage) is the strength of the push or pull on electrons by the reactants in a redox reaction (reaction that involves transfer of electrons).

It is of two types :-

  • Oxidation potential
  • Reduction potential

 \small{ \underline{ \overline{ \mid{ \rm{ \red{Oxidation\:Potential}} \mid}}}}

When electrode is negatively charged with respect to solution that is it acts as anode.The oxidation take place.

 \small{ \underline{ \overline{ \mid{ \rm{ \red{Reduction\:Potential}} \mid}}}}

When electrode is positively charged with respect to solution that is it acts as cathode.The reduction take place.

Electrode Potential :--

                                Potential difference between metal and metal ion in which electrode is dipped is called Electrode Potential .

Have a nice day mate ;)
