Standard electrode potential of reaction will not change due to multiply the half-cell reactions with some numbers,

To get the main eq we have to reverse 2nd equation and add them

So E

3

=E

2

+E

1

E

3

=−1.18+(−1.51)

E

3

=−2.69V

The reaction is not possible as the ΔG will come +ve for this case and that indicates reaction is non-spontaneous.
