Topscore #3, Question 63 on Sciences

Why is the answer E? Shouldn't the answer be A (.50)? What happened to the negative charge? Is the molar amount of electrons represented as a negative number (like 5 mol e- would be -5?)

What is the question? Perhaps we can help😀

What is the Ecell for a reaction where the Go = -241.25 kJ and 5 mol e- are transferred (F = 96,500 J/V*mol e-)

What is the Ecell for a reaction where the Go = -241.25 kJ and 5 mol e- are transferred (F = 96,500 J/V*mol e-)

Go = -nFE
E = Go/(-nF)
E = (-241.25)/(-5x96500) = 5x10^-4V = 0.5mV

I'm not sure what answer E is. If you tell me what it is, perhaps I can work with it and come up with an explanation.
P.S. Is the actual reaction mentioned?
