Use the standard half-cell potentials listed below to calculate the standard cell potential for the following reaction occurring in an electrochemical cell at 25°C. Cu(s) + Mg2+(aq) → Mg(s) + Cu2+(aq)
Mg2+(aq) + 2 e⁻ → Mg(s) E° = -2.38 V
Cu2+(aq) + 2 e⁻ → Cu(s) E° = +0.34 V
A) +2.04 V
B) -2.04 V
C) +2.72 V
D) -2.72 V
E) -1.36 V
