Solution

The correct option is C +0.521
1st half cell
Cu2++2e+Cu..(1);andE1=0.337 V
2nd half cell
Cu+Cu2++e..(2);andE2=0.153 V
3rd half cell
Cu++eCu...(3); and E3=?
Adding (1) and (2)
So, ΔG3=ΔG1+ΔG2
n3FE3=n1FE1+(n2FE2)
E3=n1FE1+(n2FE2)n3F
E3=F(2E1+E2)F
E3=2E1+E2
E3=2×0.3370.153
E3=0.6740.153

E3=0.521 V
