Solution

The correct option is A 1.10×1016
Ag|AgI(0.05)M KI || (0.05)M AgNO3 | Ag
Ksp of AgI = [Ag+][I]=[Ag+][0.05]
For the given cell
Ecell=Eoxidised product(Ag)+Ereduced product(Ag)
Using Nerst equation:
Ecell=EAg/Ag+0.0591log[Ag+]LHS+EAg+/Ag+0.0591log[Ag+]RHS
0.788=0.0591log[Ag+]RHS[Ag+]LHS
0.788=0.059log0.05[Ag+]LHS
[Ag+]LHS=2.203×1015
Ksp(AgI)=2.203×1015×0.05=1.10×1016
