The standard electrode potentials of two half-cells are given as: $Ni^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2e^{-} \rightarrow Ni_{(s)}$; $E^o = -0.25 \ V$ and $Zn^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2e^{-} \rightarrow Zn_{(s)}$; $E^o = -0.76 \ V$. What is the standard $emf$ of the cell formed by connecting these two half-cells in $volt$?

The $E^{0}_{Red}$ values for $Li, Zn, H,$ and $Ag$ are $-3.05 \ V, -0.76 \ V, 0.00 \ V,$ and $0.80 \ V$ respectively. Which of these has the highest reducing power?
