NEET Chemistry Standard Electrode Potential MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about Standard Electrode Potential is correct?
The standard electrode potential of the hydrogen electrode is always positive.
A negative standard electrode potential indicates a stronger oxidizing agent.
The standard electrode potential is measured at 298K.
Electrode potential values indicate the tendency of active species to remain in the reduced form.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The standard electrode potential is defined specifically at 298K, as noted in the context. A negative potential indicates a stronger reducing agent, not oxidizing. The hydrogen electrode is defined as 0.00 volts, which is neutral, not always positive.
