Detailed Solution

AgCI(s)+e- Ag(s)+Cl-(aq)  Eo = 0.22 V
Ag+(aq) +e-Ag(s),  Eo = 0.80 V
Ag(s) Ag(aq)++e-, Eo = -0.80 V
Adding equation (1) and (2) we get
AgCI(s)Ag(aq)++CI(aq)-   Eo = -0.58V
from Nernst equation,
Ecell = Ecello-RTnFlnk
0 = -0.58-8.314×298×2.3031×96500logk
log k = 0.580.0591 = -9.81
k = 1.5×10-10
the solubility product of AgCI is 1.5×10-10.
