Given the equilibrium constant $K_c$ of the reaction $Cu_{(s)} + 2Ag^{+}_{(aq)} \to Cu^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2Ag_{(s)}$ is $10 \times 10^{15}$,calculate the $E_{cell}^o$ of the reaction at $298 \ K$. [Given: $2.303 \ \frac{RT}{F} \text{ at } 298 \ K = 0.059 \ V$]

The magnitude of the change in oxidising power of the $MnO_4^- / Mn^{2+}$ couple is $x \times 10^{-4} \, V$,if the $H^{+}$ concentration is decreased from $1 \, M$ to $10^{-4} \, M$ at $25^{\circ} C$. (Assume concentration of $MnO_4^-$ and $Mn^{2+}$ to be same on change in $H^{+}$ concentration). The value of $x$ is ....... .
