The following cell notation contains two half-reactions.
Pt | Fe2+ (aq), Fe3+ (aq) || Sn4+ (aq), Sn²+ (aq) | Pt
Which of the following statement/equation correctly describes the two half-reactions?
anode: Sn4+ (aq)+2e→Sn²+ (aq); cathode: Fe2+(aq)-e→Fe³+(aq);
O anode: Fe²+ (aq)-e→Fe³+(aq); cathode: Sn²+ (aq)+2e→Sn4+ (aq)
anode: Fe³+ (aq)+e→Fe2+ (aq); cathode: Sn²+ (aq)+2e→Sn³+ (aq)
anode: Pt + e → Fe³+ (aq)+Fe2+ (aq); cathode: Sn4+ (aq)+Sn²+ (aq) +2e→Pt
O anode: Fe²+ (aq)-e→Fe³+ (aq); cathode: Sn4+ (aq)+2e-Sn²+ (aq)

**Half-Reaction Table and Electrode Potentials**

This table presents various half-reactions along with their standard electrode potentials (E°) measured in volts (V). These potentials indicate the tendency of a chemical species to be reduced—the higher the value, the stronger the oxidizing agent. Conversely, lower values imply stronger reducing agents. The table is organized to show this transition from oxidizing to reducing agents.

### Table Details:

#### Half-Reactions and E° Values:

1. **F₂(g) + 2e⁻ → 2F⁻(aq)**
*E° = +2.87 V*

2. **Cl₂(g) + 2e⁻ → 2Cl⁻(aq)**
*E° = +1.36 V*

3. **MnO₂(g) + 4H⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Mn²⁺(aq) + 2H₂O(l)**
*E° = +1.23 V*

4. **NO₃⁻(aq) + 4H⁺(aq) + 3e⁻ → NO(g) + 2H₂O(l)**
*E° = +0.96 V*

5. **Ag⁺(aq) + e⁻ → Ag(s)**
*E° = +0.80 V*

6. **Fe³⁺(aq) + e⁻ → Fe²⁺(aq)**
*E° = +0.77 V*

7. **O₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) + 4e⁻ → 4OH⁻(aq)**
*E° = +0.40 V*

8. **Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Cu(s)**
*E° = +0.34 V*

9. **2H⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → H₂(g)**
*E° = 0.00 V*

10. **N₂(g) + 5H⁺(aq) + 4e⁻ → N₂H₇⁺(aq)**
*E° = −0.23 V*

11. **Fe²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Fe(s)**
