Hello Aastha,

Eel = E0el – 0.0592/ n log[Ag+]

Substitute the values in the above expression

-0.25V = -0.799V – 0.0592/1 log[Ag+]

log[Ag+] = -9.2736

[Ag+]= 5.3* 10-10

Hence the solubility product will be

Ksp = [Ag+][Cl-] = 5.3* 10-10 * 0.1

                         = 5.3 * 10-11

Hope this helps you
