Solution

The correct option is D Increase in the concentration of $A g^{+}$ ion
Cell voltage will increase, either by increasing the concentration of $C u^{2 +}$ ion or by decreasing the concentration of $A g^{+}$ .
$Q = \frac{[C u^{2 +}]}{[A g^{+}]}$
Lesser is the value of $Q$ , greater is the cell voltage.
