Detailed Solution

For the given reaction 2Ce4++Co2Ce3++Co2+
We know that,
Oxidation takes place at anode i.e. CoCo2++2e-
Reduction takes place at cathode i.e. 2Ce4++2e-Ce3+
We have to calculate Standard reduction potential for Ce4+/Ce3+ i.e. ERP0=?
Now for ERP0 we have to add oxidation potential with reduction potential
It means  Ecell=Eox+Ered

By putting values in equation we get,
1.89=-(-0.28)+ECe4+/Ce3+
ECe4+/Ce3+=1.89-0.28=1.61V

ECe4+/Ce3+=1.61V
Hence option B is correct.
