• B) SHE will be the cell's anode, Zn(s) will be the cell's cathode, and the measured cell potential will be 0.76 V.
• C) SHE will be the cell's cathode, Zn(s) will be the cell's anode, and the measured cell potential will be -0.76 V.
• D) SHE will be the cell's cathode, Zn²⁺(aq) will be the cell's anode, and the measured cell potential will be 0.76 V.
• E) H⁺(aq) will be the cell's cathode, Zn²⁺(aq) will be the cell's anode, and the measured cell potential will be 0.76 V.
