A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential E=+0.21 V. An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the anode of a galvanic cell that must provide at least 1.00 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 anode of the cell. Is there a minimum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the cathode of this cell can have? Data O yes, there is a minimum. E red = v 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.
