well,i am not exactly sure if my ans is correct,bt cu2+ has a much stabler existence in aq solution due to the fact that it has a very highly negative enthalpy of hydration....
in aq medium,thus cu+ disproportionates to cu and cu2+ as then the cu2+ gets hydrated and the enthalpy of the net reaction is negative enough,hence favouring the entire reaction...
the Enought value for reduction of cu2+ to cu+ is also highly negative for the same reason....
