Question

A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential Ered=+1.16 V. An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the cathode of a galvanic cell that must provide at least 0.60 V 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. Is there a minimum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the anode of this cell can have? If so, check the "yes" box and calculate the minimum. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. If there is no lower limit, check the "no" box. Is there a maximum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the anode of this cell can have? If so, check the "yes" box and calculate the maximum. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. If there is no upper limit, check the "no" box. By using the information in the ALEKS Data tab, write a balanced equation describing a half reaction that could be used at the anode of this cell. Note: write the half reaction as it would actually occur at the anode.
