Which Nernst equation is correct for the following cell? $Al_{(s)}|Al_{(aq)}^{3+} || Zn_{(aq)}^{2+}| Zn_{(s)}$

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 equilibrium constant of the reaction $Cu_{(s)} + 2Ag^{+}_{(aq)} \to Cu^{2+}_{(aq)} + 2Ag_{(s)}$ with $E^{\circ} = 0.46 \ V$ at $298 \ K$ is approximately:

$E_{1}, E_{2}, E_{3}$ are the $EMF$ values of three galvanic cells with the reaction $Zn(s) + Cu^{2+}(aq) \rightarrow Zn^{2+}(aq) + Cu(s)$ at $298 \ K$ with different concentrations: $(I) [Zn^{2+}] = 1 \ M, [Cu^{2+}] = 0.1 \ M$; $(II) [Zn^{2+}] = 1 \ M, [Cu^{2+}] = 1 \ M$; $(III) [Zn^{2+}] = 0.1 \ M, [Cu^{2+}] = 1 \ M$. Compare the $EMF$ values.
