cell reaction is
H2 (g) + Cu^2+ (aq) .................> Cu (s) + 2 H+ (aq)
Q = [H+]^2 / ([Cu^2+] * P(H2))
Nernst equation is
Ecell = E0cell - 0.059 / n * log Q
Lower the H+ ion concentration leads to decrease in Q value.
As a result, Ecell increases.
option C) lower the H+ (aq) concentration is the answer.
