Solution

The correct option is D $1.212 V$
Given: $E_{F e^{2 +} / F e}^{o} = - 0.441 V$
$F e ⟶ F e^{2 +} + 2 e^{-}, E^{o} = + 0.441 V ⟶ (i)$ & $E_{F e^{3 +} / F e^{2^{+}}}^{o} = 0.771 V$
So, $F e^{3 +} + e^{-} ⟶ F e^{2 +}, E^{o} = 0.771 V ⟶ (i i)$
Cell reaction, (i) + (ii)
$F e + 2 F e^{3 +} ⟶ 3 F e^{2 +}$
At anode, $F e ⟶ F e^{2 +} + 2 e^{-}$
Cathode $2 F e^{3 +} + 2 e^{-} ⟶ 2 F e^{2 +}$
So, $E_{C e l l}^{o} = E_{C a t h o d e}^{o} - E_{A n o d e}^{o}$
$= E_{F e^{3 +} / F e^{2 +}}^{o} - E_{F e^{2 +} / F e}^{o}$
$= (0.771) - (- 0.441)$
$= + 1.212 V$ .
