Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Redox potential is the ability of a chemical species to loose or gain electrons.

In a redox reaction there is the REDUCING agent which undergoes oxidation loosing electrons and the OXIDIZING agents undergoes reduction and gain electrons

What is true of the transferof electrons between them is that because the difference in potential is highly positive be cause of reduction which leads to the gain of electrons
