Given, For the reduction of silver ions with copper metal, the standard cell potential was found to be + 0.46 V at 25°C.

We know,

\mathrm{E^o_{Ag^+/Ag} = 0.80 \ V}

\mathrm{E^o_{Cu^+/Cu} = 0.52 \ V}

\mathrm{E^o_{Cu^{2+}/Cu} = 0.34 \ V}

From the above values,

\mathrm{E^o_{cell} = 0.46 \ V} , \textup{ will be for below reaction}

\mathrm{Cu +2Ag^+ \rightarrow 2Ag + Cu^{2+}} ;\mathrm{ \ E_{cell}^o = +0.46\ V}

So,

\begin{aligned} \mathrm{\Delta G^o} &=\mathrm{-n F E^{\circ}_{cell}} \\ &=-2 \times 96500 \times 0.46 \\ & \mathrm{ \simeq-89.0 kJ} \end{aligned}

Option 2 is correct.
