We have to predict the correct cell notation. In Reaction we can see that on left side we have Mg in 0 oxidation number on right Mg has +2 oxidation number so Mg has rise in oxidation number so Mg is undergoing oxidation . Similarly, on left Sn has +2 oxidation number and on right it has 0 oxidation number so Sn has undergone reduction. In cell notation , oxidation half cell is shown on left side of salt bridge and reduction half cell on right side of salt bridge. Salt bridge is denoted by || So general notation is : A | A+2 || B+2 | B Here A is oxidized and B is reduced. For our question, We can write, Mg | Mg+2 || Sn+2 | Sn Option 1 is correct.
