Define – Standard electrode potential


The standard electrode potential is a measurement of the equilibrium potential. The potential of the electrode is the difference in potential between the electrode and the electrolyte. The electrode potential is known as the standard electrode potential when the concentrations of all the species involved in a semi-cell are equal.
In an electrochemical cell, the standard electrode potential occurs when the temperature is 298K, the pressure is 1atm, and the concentration is 1M. The standard electrode potential of a cell is represented by the symbol ‘Eocell.
The potential of the electrode is the difference in potential between the electrode and the electrolyte is called electrode potential and when the conditions are standard such as temperature is 298K, the pressure is 1 atm, and the concentration is 1M it is known as Standard electrode potential
