Detailed Solution
Standard electrode potential of copper electrode can be calculated by constructing a concentration cell composed of two half-cell reactions in which concentration of species on left hand and right hand side are unity.In such case cell potential is equal to standard electrode potential.Pt(s)H2(g,1bar)∣H+(aq,1M)⏟Oxidation half -cell reaction Cu2+(aq,1M)Cu⏟Reduction half -cell reaction
