Chemistry?

For a gaseous reaction, standard conditions are 298 K and a partial pressure of 1 atm for all species.

For the reaction

2NO(g)+O2(g)↽−−⇀2NO2(g)

the standard change in Gibbs free energy is Δ𝐺°=−72.6 kJ/mol . What is ΔG for this reaction at 298 K when the partial pressures are 𝑃NO=0.150 atm , 𝑃O2=0.350 atm , and 𝑃NO2=0.900 atm ?

    ΔG = Δ𝐺° + RT ln (PNO2)^2 / (PNO)^2 PO2

    Δ𝐺 = -72.6 kJ/mol + (8.314 J/molK) (298K) ln (0.900)^2 / (0.150)^2 (0.350)

    Δ𝐺 = -61.1 kJ/mol
