Question
A galvanic cell is powered by the following redox reaction:

\[ 2 \text{Cu}^{2+}(\text{aq}) + \text{H}_2(\text{g}) + 2 \text{OH}^-(\text{aq}) \rightarrow 2 \text{Cu}^+(\text{aq}) + 2 \text{H}_2\text{O}(\text{l}) \]

Answer the following questions about this cell. If you need any electrochemical data, be sure you get it from the ALEKS Data tab.

1. **Write a balanced equation for the half-reaction that takes place at the cathode.**
   - [ ]

2. **Write a balanced equation for the half-reaction that takes place at the anode.**
   - [ ]

3. **Calculate the cell voltage under standard conditions.**
   - Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
   \[ E^\circ = [ ]\text{ V} \]

**Diagram Explanation:**

The image includes a small diagram representing electrons (\( e^- \)) being transferred, typically indicating the flow of electrons in a reaction. The design shows an interface for adding and editing chemical equations or symbols.
