1.In order to solve this problem,we need to use Nernst equation:
where E is the cell potential at a instant.E0 refers to the cell potential,n is the number of electron takes part in the overall reaction. is the concentration of the oxidated species and is the concentration of the reduced species.
the cell reaction at equilibrium,E=0,therefore
The reduction will happen in the anode compartment.So the concentration of the reduced species is equivalent to the molar solubility of lead bromide.
Molar solubility of lead bromide at 298K is 0.010 mol/L
