Problem

For the following electrochemical cell at 298 K, Pt(s) ∣ HX2(g,1bar) ∣ HX+(aq,1M) ∣∣ MX4+(aq),MX2+(aq) ∣ Pt(s)\ce{Pt(s) | H2(g,1 bar) | H+(aq,1 M) || M^{4+}(aq), M^{2+}(aq) | Pt(s)} Ecell=0.092 VE_{\mathrm{cell}}=0.092\,\mathrm V when [MX2+(aq)][MX4+(aq)]=10x\dfrac{[\ce{M^{2+}(aq)}]}{[\ce{M^{4+}(aq)}]}=10^x. Given: EMX4+/MX2+∘=0.151 VE^\circ_{\ce{M^{4+}/M^{2+}}}=0.151\,\mathrm V; 2.303RTF=0.059 V2.303\dfrac{RT}{F}=0.059\,\mathrm V. The value of xx is
