MCQ
A standard hydrogen electrode has zero electrode potential because
  • A
    Hydrogen atom has only one $e^-$
  • B
    Hydrogen is the lightest element.
  • ✓
    Electrode potential is assumed to be zero.
  • D
    Hydrogen is easy to oxidise.
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
Electrode potential is assumed to be zero.
c
Hydrogen is used as standard electrode and other electrodes potential is measured w.r.t. to hydrogen so potential of hydrogen is assumed to zero for standard measurements.
