Question

The electrochemical cell shown below is a concentration cell. $M \mid M^{2+}$ (saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt, $M X_2$ ) $\| M^{2+}\left(0.001 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{dm}{ }^{-3}\right) \mid M$
The emf of the cell depends on the difference in concentrations of $M^{2+}$ ions at the two electrodes. The emf of the cell at 298 K is 0.059 V .
