The correct options are
A Fe/Fe2+; E=0.44
B Al/Al3+; E=1.66
The following will act as anodes when connected to standard hydrogen electrode as they have more negative standard reduction potential as compared to standard hydrogen electrode.
Al/Al3+; E=1.66
Fe/Fe2+; E=0.44
The following will act as cathodes when connected to standard hydrogen electrode as they have more positive standard reduction potential as compared to standard hydrogen electrode.
Cu/Cu2+; E=+0.34
F2(g)/2F(aq); E=+2.87
