We know that ΔG0 = -R*T*ln K where T = absolute temperature of the reaction = 25°C = (25 + 273) K = 298 K; plug in values.
ΔG0 = -(8.314 J/mol.K)*(298 K)*ln (5.0*104) = -26806.77972 J/mol = -(26806.77972 J/mol)*(1 kJ/1000 J) = -26.80677972 kJ/mol ≈ -26.81 kJ/mol (ans).
Again, we know that ΔG0 = -n*F*E0cell where n = 1 mole and F = 96485 J/V.mol. Plug in values.
-26806.77972 J/mol = -(1 mole)*(96485 J/V.mol)*E0cell
====> E0cell = 0.27787 V ≈ 0.278 V (ans).
