A student constructs a galvanic cell operating under standard conditions using silver and lead electrodes submerged in standard \(1.0 \, \text{M}\) nitrate solutions. The relevant standard reduction potentials are given in the table below.

Half-Reaction\(E^\circ \, \text{(V)}\)
\(\text{Ag}^+(\text{aq}) + e^- \rightarrow \text{Ag}(\text{s})\)\(+0.80\)
\(\text{Pb}^{2+}(\text{aq}) + 2e^- \rightarrow \text{Pb}(\text{s})\)\(-0.13\)

What is the standard cell potential, \(E^\circ_{\text{cell}}\), for the galvanic cell?
