Solution

The correct option is A
0.46V

$T h e c e l l r e a c t i o n i s$

$C u (s) + 2 A g^{2 +} \to C u^{2 +} + 2 A g (s)$

$= E^{0} - \frac{- 0.059}{2} l o g (\frac{C u^{2 +}}{C u})$

$E^{0} = E^{0} (\frac{A g^{+}}{A g}) - E^{0} (\frac{C u^{2}}{C u}) = 0.80 - 0.34 = 0.46 V$

$N o w, E = 0.46 -$ $\frac{0.059}{2} l o g (\frac{0.01}{(0.1)^{2}})$

$= 0.46 - \frac{0.059}{2} l o g 1$

$= 0.46 - 0 = 0.46 V$
