A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential . An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the cathode of a galvanic cell that must provide at least of electrical power. The cell will operate under standard conditions. Note for advanced students: assume the engineer requires this half-reaction to happen at the cathode of the cell. 1. Is there a minimum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the cathode of this cell can have?
2. Is there a maximum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the cathode of this cell can have?
3. By using the information in the ALEKS Data tab, write a balanced equation describing a half reaction that could be used at the cathode of this cell.
