Reversing the equation gives the oxidation half reaction. Doing this changes the sign on the voltage, not the magnitude.
Oxidation is characterized by the loss of electrons, and reduction is characterized by the gain of electrons. Since there must be an electron loser and an electron receiver, oxidation and reduction are always complimentary.

An oxidation-reduction reaction can be determined by looking for changes in the oxidation states of the elements involved. If an element loses electrons (oxidation) and another gains electrons (reduction), it is likely an oxidation-reduction reaction.
Oxidation potential measures the tendency of a substance to be oxidized, while reduction potential measures the tendency of a substance to be reduced. Both are measured in volts and indicate the strength of a substance's ability to gain or lose electrons in a redox reaction.
The reduction potential plus oxidation potential is negative.
The total reduction potential of a cell where potassium is reduced and copper is oxidized can be calculated by finding the difference in the standard reduction potentials of the two half-reactions. The reduction potential for potassium reduction (K⁺ + e⁻ → K) is -2.92 V, and the oxidation potential for copper oxidation (Cu → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻) is 0.34 V. Therefore, the total reduction potential of the cell is -2.92 V - 0.34 V = -3.26 V.
Definition: The standard hydrogen electrode is the standard measurement of electrode potential for the thermodynamic scale of redox potentials.The standard is determined by the potential of a platinum electrode in the redox half reaction2 H+(aq) + 2 e- → H2(g) at 25 °C.The standard hydrogen electrode is often abbreviated SHE.Also Known As: normal hydrogen electrode or NHE
To write an oxidation half reaction using the reduction potential chart, simply reverse the reduction half reaction from the chart. This means changing the sign of the reduction potential value and flipping the direction of the reaction arrow. Remember to balance the reaction by adding any necessary electrons.

The total reduction potential of the cell can be calculated by finding the difference between the reduction potentials of the two half-reactions at standard conditions. The reduction potential for K reduction is -2.92 V and for Cu oxidation is 0.34 V. So, the total reduction potential for the cell would be (-2.92 V) - 0.34 V = -3.26 V.
