Questions Related to electrical cells

The electrochemical cell shown below is a concentration cell.
$M|{ M }^{ 2+ }$ (saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt, $M{X} _{2})\parallel {M}^{2+}(0.001 mol{dm}^{-3})| M$. 
The emf of the cell depends on the difference in concentrations of ${M}^{2+}$ ions at the two electrodes.
The emf of the cell at $298K$ is $0.099V$
The solubility product (${K} _{sp}:{mol}^{3}{dm}^{-9}$) of ${MX} _{2}$ at $298K$ based on the information available for the given concentration cell is: (take $2.303\times R\times 298/F=0.059V$)
