NEET Chemistry Standard Electrode Potential MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about Standard Electrode Potential are correct?
A negative standard electrode potential indicates a stronger oxidizing agent.
The standard electrode potential of the hydrogen electrode is defined as 1.00 volts.
A higher standard electrode potential value corresponds to a greater tendency to be reduced.
Standard electrode potentials are measured at 298K and 1M concentration of ions.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
A higher standard electrode potential indicates a greater tendency for the species to be reduced, while a negative value denotes a stronger reducing agent. The standard electrode potential for the hydrogen electrode is defined as 0.00 volts, not 1.00 volts.
