Solution

The correct option is A 2.618×106
The expression for the standard cell potential is E0cell=E0Cu2+|CuE0Sn4+|Sn2+
Substitute values in the above expression.
E0cell=0.34V0.15V=0.19V
The expression for the equilibrium constant K is logK=nE00.0592
Substitute values in the above expression.
logK=2×0.190.0592=6.418
Hence, the value of the equilibrium constant is 2.618×106
