Consider the following electrochemical cell at standard condition: $Au_{(s)} | QH_2, Q | NH_4X(0.01 \ M) || Ag^{+}(1 \ M) | Ag_{(s)}$. Given $E_{\text{cell}} = +0.4 \ V$. The couple $QH_2 / Q$ represents the quinhydrone electrode,and the half-cell reaction is given as: $Q + 2e^- + 2H^+ \rightarrow QH_2$ with $E^o_{Q/QH_2} = +0.7 \ V$. Given: $E^o_{Ag^+/Ag} = +0.8 \ V$ and $\frac{2.303 \ RT}{F} = 0.06 \ V$. The $pK_b$ value of the ammonium halide salt $(NH_4X)$ used here is $.........$ (nearest integer).
