Half-Cells and Cell Potentials > Electrical Potential
The electrical potential of a cell results
from a competition for electrons between
two half-cells.
• The electrical potential of a voltaic cell
is a measure of the cell’s ability to
produce an electric current.
• The tendency of a given half-reaction to
occur as a reduction is called the
reduction potential.

Half-Cells and Cell Potentials > Standard Cell Potential
The standard cell potential (Eocell ) is the
measured cell potential when the ion
concentrations in the half-cells are 1M, any
gases are at a pressure of 101 kPa, and the
temperature is 25°C.

If the cell potential for a given redox
reaction is positive, then the reaction is
spontaneous as written. If the cell
potential is negative, then the reaction is
nonspontaneous.
