For the spontaneity of a cell,which of the following is correct?

If the half-cell reaction $A + e^- \to A^-$ has a large negative reduction potential,it follows that

The $E^o$ for half cells $Fe/Fe^{2+}$ and $Cu/Cu^{2+}$ are $-0.44 \, V$ and $+0.32 \, V$ respectively. Then

Given at $298 \ K$: $E^\ominus_{Fe^{2+}/Fe} = X \ V$; $E^\ominus_{Fe^{3+}/Fe} = Y \ V$. The $E^\ominus_{Fe^{3+}/Fe^{2+}}$ in Volt at $298 \ K$ is given by:

For the half-reactions $Zn \rightarrow Zn^{2+} + 2e^{-}$ and $Fe \rightarrow Fe^{2+} + 2e^{-}$,the standard oxidation potentials are given as $E^{0}_{Oxi} = +0.76 \ V$ and $E^{0}_{Oxi} = +0.41 \ V$ respectively. Calculate the cell potential for the reaction $Fe^{2+} + Zn \rightarrow Zn^{2+} + Fe$ in $V$.
