Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Standard reduction potential (E°) measures the tendency of a species to gain electrons and be reduced. The more positive the E°, the greater the tendency to undergo reduction. Metals with negative E° are good reducing agents (e.g., Zn, -0.76 V). E°cell = E°cathode - E°anode. It is measured under standard conditions (1 M, 1 atm, 25°C) relative to standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) which is assigned 0 V.
