### Reduction Potential Analysis for a Galvanic Cell

A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential \( E_{\text{red}}^0 = -0.97 \, \text{V} \). An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the cathode of a galvanic cell that must provide at least \( 0.80 \, \text{V} \) 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.

#### Questions and Calculations

1. **Minimum Standard Reduction Potential for the Anode:**
   - 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.

   - \(\boxed{\text{yes, there is a minimum.}} \,\, E_{\text{red}}^0 = \boxed{?} \, \text{V}\)

     \(\boxed{\text{no minimum}}\)

2. **Maximum Standard Reduction Potential for the Anode:**
   - 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.

   - \(\boxed{\text{yes, there is a maximum.}} \,\, E_{\text{red}}^0 = \boxed{?} \, \text{V}\)

     \(\boxed{\text{no maximum}}\)

3. **Balanced Half-Reaction Equation:**
   - 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.

     \( \boxed{?} \)
