Q.

The electrochemical cell shown below is a concentration cell M|M2+(Saturated  MX2)||M2+(0.001  molar)|M  The emf of the cell depends on the difference in concentrations of  M2+ ions at the two electrodes. The emf of the cell at 298K is 0.059V
The solubility product (Ksp;mol3dm9) of  MX2 at 298K based on the information available for the given concentration cell is (take  2.303  R  298/F=0.059V)

M/M2+(sat.solnofMX2)||M2+(0.001 molL-1)||M

Anode ;  MM+2(CmolL1)+2e
Cathode  M2+(0.001molL1)+2eM
Cell reaction
 M2+(0.001molL1)M2+(CmolL1);(n=2)
For concentration cell : Ecell0=0
Ecell0=-0.059nlog[M2+]anode[M2+]cathode

0.059=-0.059nlog(c103)

log(c103)=2=log102       C=105molL1    MX2M2++2X1

For saturated solution : [M2+]=10-5mol L-1

[X-]=2[M2+]=2×10-5(M)        Ksp=[M2+][X]2=(105)(2×105)2=4×1015
