Solution

The correct option is B $0.642 V$
Given
$- l o g [H^{+}] = 2$
$∴ [H]^{+} = 10^{- 2}$

$2 e^{-} + Z n^{2 +} \to Z n$ $E^{\circ} = - 0.76$

$Z n + 2 H^{+} \to Z n^{2 +} + H_{2}$

$∴ E_{c e l l} = - (- 0.76) - \frac{0.059}{2} l o g \frac{[Z n^{2 +}]}{[H^{+}]^{2}}$

$= 0.76 - \frac{0.059}{2} \times 2 p H$

$= 0.76 - \frac{0.059}{2} \times 2 \times 2$

$= 0.642 V$

Option B is correct.
