Sn(s) + 2Fe³⁺(aq) → Sn²⁺(aq) + 2Fe²⁺(aq)

Which, if any, of the following three metals could be used as sacrificial anodes for protection of a metal with E° = 0.93 V? (All E° values refer to the M³⁺/M half-cell reactions.)
(1) gold, Au, E° = +1.50 V
(2) chromium, Cr, E° = -0.74 V
(3) aluminum, Al, E° = -1.66 V

- none of them could be used

- only (3) could be used

- all three of them could be used

- only (1) and (2) can be used

- only (2) and (3) could be used

only (2) and (3) could be used
