E0cell can be calculated using
E0cell = E0reduction + E0oxidation
and
E0cell = E0cathode - E0anode
E0cell = E0reduction + E0oxidation
and
E0cell = E0cathode - E0anode
-
they are the same
oxidation = anode
reduction = cathode
oxidation = anode
reduction = cathode
-
Because what happens at the cathode IS reduction.
Remember this SOAC/GERC (soac a gerc)
It stands for: Strongest Oxidizing Agent at the Cathode / Gain of Electrons is Reduction at Cathode.
