Question
(a) Calculate the standard free-energy change (ΔG°) for the following oxidation-reduction reaction.
Cu(s) + Br2(aq) → Cu2+(aq) + 2 Br−(aq)
(b) Calculate the equilibrium constant for this reaction at 298 K.
Cu(s) + Br2(aq) → Cu2+(aq) + 2 Br−(aq)
(b) Calculate the equilibrium constant for this reaction at 298 K.

dGo rxn = (n*dGo products) - (n*dGo reactants)
Then dGo = -RTlnK
Then dGo = -RTlnK
