If the standard reduction potential of silver is 0.80 V, what is the standard reduction potential of zinc?

If the standard reduction potential of silver is 0.80 V, what is the standard reduction potential of zinc? Correct Answer -0.76 V

B-The cell voltage (1.56 V) is the sum of the standard reduction potential for silver (0.80 V) and the reverse of the standard reduction potential for zinc. Therefore, (1.56 - 0.80) V = 0.76 V = the reverse of the standard reduction potential for zinc. Reversing the value gives -0.76 V as the standard reduction potential for zinc.
