Answer #1

Solution:

When some of the Cu2+ spilled into the compartment with Zn electrode and Zn2+ ions, then the metalic Cu is deposited on Zn electrode and hence, cell potential will be reduced.

Zn +Cu2+ = Zn2+ + Cu (metal)

This Cu metal deposited on Zn electrode and hence minimizes the cell potential.
