Eocell=Ecathodeo- Eanodeo Ecello=(-0.42)-(-0.72)=+0.30V

For the given galvanic cell the reaction is written as 

2Cr +3Fe(0.01M)2+2Cr(0.1M)3++3Fe The reaction Quitient (Qc)=[Cr3+]2[Fe2+]3=[0.1]2[0.01]3=104 The Nersnt equation is written as  Ecell=Ecello-0.0591nlog Qc Ecell=0.30-0.05916log 104 on solving  Ecell = +0.261V
