(a)
Interpretation:
The standard potential for the cell reaction in hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell used in space vehicles has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Standard cell potential:
The standard cell potential is the measure of individual potential of reversible electrode at standard state. The conditions that makes cell potential to qualify as standard cell potential is when all the reactants and the product are in standard state that is solutes at
