when two half-cells of electrode potential of `E_1` and `E_2` are combined to form a half cell of electrode potential `E_3` , then
(when `n_1,n_2"and"n_3` are no. of electrons exchanged in first second and combined half-cells:

A

`E_3=E_2-E_1`

B

`E_3=(E_1n_1+E_2n_2)/(n_3)`

C

`E_3=(E_1n_1+E_2n_2)/(n_3^2)`
