A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential =E_red= 0.99V . An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the cathode of a galvanic cell that must provide at least 1.20V of electrical. 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 1.20V of electrical power. The cell will operate under standard conditions. Required:
a. Is there a minimum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the anode of this cell can have?
b. Is there a maximum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the anode of this cell can have?
