Summary
Electrode Potential
For any electrode ⟶ oxidation potential = - Reduction potential
Ecell = R.P of cathode – R.P of anode
Ecell = R.P of cathode + O.P of anode
Ecell is always a + ve quantity & Anode will be electrode of low R.P
Ecell = SRP of cathode – R.P of anode

∎ Greater the SRP value greater will be oxidising power.
