Redox equilibria

A rather comprehensive site explaining electrode potentials and electrochemical cells:

Real voltaic cells will typically differ from the standard conditions. The Nernst equation takes into account the effect of temperature and ion concentrations on cell potential. Read about the equation on this site:
