Given information

Here in this question we have been provided with a cell where both the electrodes have same metal but the concentration of lead ions is different

one of the electrode having        

and the other electrode having      

we are also provides with a salt bridge of  

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.
We know that cell potential depends not only on the half-reactions occurring in the cell, but also on the concentrations of the reactants and products in those half-
 
reactions,  so it is viable to construct a voltaic cell in which both half-reactions are almost same, but in which a difference in concentration drives the current flow, which
 
can be seen here in different half cells

and the other electrode having
