Consider the following electrode potentials:

Mg2+ + 2e→ Mg    E° = –2.37 V

V2+ + 2e→ V         E° = –1.19 V

Cu2+ + e→ Cu+        E° = 0.16 V

Which one of the reactions below will proceed spontaneously from left to right?



Mg2+ + V → V2+ + Mg

Mg2+ + 2Cu+→ 2Cu2+ + Mg

V2+ + 2Cu+→ V + 2Cu2+



Mg + 2Cu2+→ Mg2+ + 2Cu+



None of these are correct.
