In acidic medium,$MnO_4^-$ acts as an oxidising agent: $MnO_4^- + 8H^+ + 5e^- \to Mn^{2+} + 4H_2O$. If the $H^+$ ion concentration is doubled,the electrode potential of the half-cell will:

  • A
    increase by $28.46 \ mV$
  • B
    decrease by $28.46 \ mV$
  • C
    increase by $14.23 \ mV$
  • D
    decrease by $142.3 \ mV$
