Convert each of the potentials. The silver-silver chloride and calomel reference electrodes are saturated with KCl, KCl, resulting in cell potentials of + 0.197 V and + 0.241 V with respect to the standard hydrogen electrode (S. H. E.), respectively. If an electrode has a potential of 0.9120.912 V with respect to a standard hydrogen electrode (S. H. E.), what is the potential with respect to a silver-silver chloride electrode?

Jayce Russo · Answer 1

the potential with respect to a silver-silver chloride electrode is 0.715

Explanation:

the potential to a silver chloride electrode can be derived from the question above by saying that

the potential with respect to a silver-silver chloride electrode? = 0.9120v - 0.197 V

= 0.715

therefore, the potential with respect to a silver-silver chloride electrode is 0.715
