Question
A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential Ered -0.96 V. An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the cathode of a galvanic cell that
must provide at least 0.90 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.
