M26 / M standard electrode potential -

The thermochemical parameters related to the transformation of the solid metal atoms to M2+ ions in solution and their standard electrode potential E- shown in fig.

 

-

 

 Among the transition metals given, only Cu\left ( Z=29 \right ) has a positive standad potential \left ( E^{0}_{M^{2+/M}}\right )
