Consider following reaction :
$Fe(OH)_2 + 2e^- \rightarrow Fe(s) + 2OH^-$ , $E^{\circ} = -0.88 \text{ V}$
$AgBr(s) + e^- \rightarrow Ag(s) + Br^-(aq)$ , $E^{\circ} = 0.07 \text{ V}$
Select the correct statement.
(1) $E^{\circ}_{cell} = -0.95 \text{V}$
(2) $E^{\circ}_{cell}$ is an extensive property
(3) $Fe$ is getting reduced
(4) Net cell reaction: $Fe(s) + 2OH^-(aq) + 2AgBr(s) \rightarrow Fe(OH)_2 + 2Ag(s) + 2Br^-(aq)$
