What is EoE^{\mathrm{o}} for the following half reaction?

MX2(s)+2e−→M(s)+2X−;E∘=?M2+(s)+2e−→M(s);E∘=0.100 VMX2(s)→M2++2X−;Ksp=e−10\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{MX}_2(\mathrm{s})+2 e^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{M}(\mathrm{s})+2 \mathrm{X}^{-} ; E^{\circ}=? \\ & \mathrm{M}^{2+}(\mathrm{s})+2 e^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{M}(\mathrm{s}) ; E^\circ=0.100 \mathrm{~V} \\ & \mathrm{MX}_2(\mathrm{s}) \rightarrow \mathrm{M}^{2+}+2 \mathrm{X}^{-} ; K_{\mathrm{sp}}=e^{-10} \end{aligned}
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
E∘=0.100−0.05922log⁡1KspE^{\circ}=0.100-\frac{0.0592}{2} \log \frac{1}{K_{\text {sp}}}
Option B (E∘=0.100−0.05922log⁡1KspE^{\circ}=0.100-\frac{0.0592}{2} \log \frac{1}{K_{\text {sp}}}) is correct because it correctly applies the Nernst equation to relate the standard potential to the solubility product.
