Based on the given standard electrode potentials,identify the metal that can be displaced from its salt solution by all other metals listed.
$E^o Zn^{2+}/Zn = -0.76 \ V, E^o Cu^{2+}/Cu = +0.34 \ V$
$E^o Ag^+/Ag = +0.80 \ V, E^o Co^{2+}/Co = -0.28 \ V$

Which expression represents the cell potential $(E_{cell})$?

If standard reduction potential $(E^{\circ})$ of $(Ni_{(aq)}^{+2} \mid Ni_{(s)})$ and $(Al_{(aq)}^{+3} \mid Al_{(s)})$ are $-0.25 \ V$ and $-1.66 \ V$ respectively,what is the standard emf of the cell reaction $2 \ Al_{(s)} + 3 \ Ni_{(aq)}^{+2} \rightarrow 2 \ Al_{(aq)}^{+3} + 3 \ Ni_{(s)}$?

$Li$ occupies a higher position in the electrochemical series of metals as compared to $Cu$ since:

The $E^0_{cell}$ of the cell $Al(s)|Al^{3+}(1M)||Pb^{2+}(1M)|Pb(s)$ is $1.5 \text{ V}$. If $E^0_{Pb^{2+}/Pb}$ is $-0.14 \text{ V}$, then $E^0_{Al^{3+}/Al}$ will be: (in $\text{ V}$)
