Which one of the reactions must be carried out in an electrolytic cell rather than in an electrochemical cell?

All 4 of these reactions could take place in an electrochemical cell. Should the question read "... rather than a voltaic cell?" Hint, a voltaic cell is a spontaneous electrochemical cell, an electrolytic cell is a non-spontaneous electrochemical cell.
