    determining the standard reduction potentials of different electrochemical half-cells through pairing it with Cu2+(0.1 M)|Cu half-cell and then comparing it with the theoretical value. Galvanic or voltaic cells contain the anodic and cathodic cell reactions‚ and in order to get the value of Ecell‚ we add both half-reactions. The more positive the Ecell‚the more negative ΔG would be‚ thus‚ giving us a spontaneous reaction. After comparing the cell potentials‚ formation constant of [Cu(NH3)4]2+
