Solution

The correct option is C ${B r}_{2} + {2 I}^{1} ⟶ 2 B r + I_{2}$
We know that,
$Δ G = - n F E_{c e l l}$ , if $Δ G > 0$ the, the reaction is said to be spontaneous.For that, $E_{c e l l} > 0$
In the given options considering option A,
$E_{c e l l} = E_{c a t h o d e} - E_{a n o d e} = - 0.54 - 1.09 = - 1.63 V$
So the value of $E_{c e l l} > 0$ and hence the reaction will be non-spontaneous.
Hence,option A is correct answer.
