A standard aqueous solution of a weak acid HX has a pH of 5 and shows a conductance of 4×10–5 S when placed in a conductivity cell with electrode separation of 15 cm and cross-sectional area of 1 cm².
Assuming that the degree of dissociation of HX is very small, calculate the limiting molar conductivity of the solution (in Sm2mol-1).

For the electrochemical cell:
Pt | HSnO₂⁻, Sn(OH)₆²⁻, OH⁻ || Bi₂O₃, Bi | Pt
The reaction quotient (Q) is 10⁶.
Given:
E°(Sn(OH)₆²⁻ / HSnO₂⁻) = −0.90 V
E°(Bi₂O₃ / Bi) = −0.44 V
If the cell potential Ecell is expressed as x × 10⁻¹ V, find the value of x:
