Given below are half-cell reactions:
\(\text{MnO}_{4}^{-}+8 \text{H}^{+}+5 \text{e}^{-} \rightarrow \text{Mn}^{2+}+4 \text{H}_{2} \text{O}, \)
\( \text{E}_{\text{Mn}^{2+}}^{\circ} / \text{MnO}_{4}^{-}=-1.510 \text{ V} \)
\( \frac{1}{2} \text{O}_{2}+2 \text{H}^{+}+2 \text{e}^{-} \rightarrow \text{H}_{2} \text{O}, \)
\( \text{E}_{\text{O}_{2} / \text{H}_{2} \text{O}}^{\circ}=+1.223 \text{ V}\)
Will the permanganate ion, \(\text{MnO}_{4}^{-}\) , liberate \(\text{O}_{2}\) from water in the presence of an acid?

1. No, because \(\text{E}_{\text {cell }}^{\circ}=-2.733 \text{ V}\)
2. Yes, because \(\text{E}_{\text {cell }}^{\circ}=+0.287 \text{ V}\)
3. No, because \(\text{E}_{\text {cell }}^{\circ}=-0.287 \text{ V}\)
4. Yes, because \(\text{E}_{\text {cell }}^{\circ}=+2.733 \text{ V}\)
