Standard reduction potential is the measure of the tendency of a species to undergo reduction. It is measured in terms of volts. The substance which is having high positive value will easily undergo reduction. In electrochemical series, the elements are arranged in the decreasing order of reduction potential. The high value for standard reduction potential indicates the high oxidising power of the substance.
