The correct answer is: $10^{30}$
$\begin{aligned} \mathrm{E}_{\text {cell }}^{\circ} &=\frac{0.0591}{\mathrm{n}} \log \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}} \\ 0.59 &=\frac{0.0591}{3} \log \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}} \\ \frac{0.59 \times 3}{0.059} &=\log \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}} \\ \therefore \quad \log \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{c}} &=30 \\ \mathrm{~K}_{\mathrm{c}} &=\text { antilog } 30 \\ &=10^{30} \end{aligned}$
