0.615 - 0.478 = 0.138 kJK-1mol-1
Gibbs free energy at 298K (standard conditions and standard temperature):
 
Δr G ⦵   = Δr H ⦵ – (T 298 x Δr S ⦵)   =   -285.4– (298 x0.138)  =
-326.4kJmol-1
Δr H ⦵
=
-285.4 kJmol-1 Negative value: the reaction is exothermic
Δr S ⦵
=
+0.138 kJK-1mol-1 Positive value: the system becomes more dispersed
Δr G ⦵ 298K
=
-326.4 kJmol-1 Negative value: the reaction is feasible (spontaneous)
K eq 298K
=
1.62 x 10+57 Value is greater than 1: the reaction proceeds to the right
No equilibrium temperature: this reaction is feasible at all temperatures
