I am trying to append CDPATH automatically in the ~/.bash_profile and I am doing it by using the command
ex -sc 's/$/:/opt/|w|q' ~/.bash_profile
When I run this, the terminal hangs whereas the below command works just fine
ex -sc 's/$/yourText2/|w|q' ~/.bash_profile
What is wrong in the first command?

The issue is the unescaped / in your replacement text :/opt
You must either escape it
ex -sc 's/$/:/opt/|w|q' file
or use an alternate separator for the s command
ex -sc 's@$@:/opt@|w|q' file
