Answer:

Oxidation half reaction is written as follows when using using reduction potential chart

example when using copper it is written as follows

CU2+ +2e- --> c(s) +0.34v

oxidasation is the loos of electron hence copper oxidation potential is as follows

cu (s) --> CU2+ +2e -0.34v

Answer:

The potential difference is caused by the ability of electrons to flow from one half cell to the other. Electrons are able to move between electrodes because the chemical reaction is a redox reaction. ... The cell potential (Ecell) is measured in voltage (V), which allows us to give a certain value to the cell potential.
