Solution

The correct option is A ${T i}^{2 +} / T i (- 1.63 V)$
Half reactions with lowest standard reduction have stable reactants (ions).
Here, $T i^{2 +} + 2 e^{-} ⟶ T i [R e d u c t i o n]$
The standard reduction potential of this reaction is least. So, the reactant $T i^{2 +}$ is more stable.
