![Standard reduction potentials for nickel(II) and copper(II)
The standard reduction potential for a substance indicates how readily that substance gains electrons relative to other substances at standard conditions. The more positive the reduction
potential, the more easily the substance gains electrons. Consider the following:
Part B
