The reduction potential for all other half-reactions is measured relative to the half-reaction 2H+(aq) + 2e- -> H2(g). Under standard conditions (pH = 0.000, PH2 = 1 atm), this standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) is defined to have a reduction potential of 0.000V.

The reduction potential for all other half-reactions is measured relative to the half-reaction 2H+(aq) + 2e- -> H2(g). Under standard conditions (pH = 0.00, P(H2) = 1 atm), this standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) is defined to have a reduction potential of 0.000 V. What is the reduction potential of a hydrogen electrode that is still at standard pressure but has a pH of 6.05, relative to the SHE?
