Explanation / Answer

Ansewer (2)

Now first of all overall magnesium is more active than copper so the overall reaction is

Cu + Mg2 --------> Cu2 + Mg
Cu --------------> Cu2 + 2e
Mg2 + 2e --------> Mg

Cu --------------> Cu2 + 2e (E = +0.35)
Mg2 + 2e --------> Mg (E = -2.36V)

+0.35 + (-2.36) = -2.01V
--------------------------------------...
Mg + Cu2 --------> Mg2 + Cu
Mg --------------> Mg2 + 2e
Cu2 + 2e --------> Cu

Mg --------------> Mg2 + 2e (E = +2.36V)
Cu2 + 2e --------> Mg (E = -0.35V)

+2.36 + (-0.35) = +2.01V
