Gibbs free energy

What is the equilibrium constant at 25 C?

deltaG= deltaH - (T(K)+deltaS)

deltaS= -121.1

deltaH= -77.36

so at 25 C

deltaG = -77.36 - (298*(-121.1))
deltaG ~ 3.6*(10^4)

so my question is: what *is* the equilibrium constant, or perhaps more accurately, how does one determine it?

You've thrown up some numbers but you don't say what they are or anything about the reaction. More importantly, the equation you are using is not correct.
DG = DH - T*DS (not T+DS)
sorry.

The reaction is:

2 NO(g) + Cl2 ---><--- 2NOCl

deltaH is the heat of reaction
deltaS is the change in entropy
T is temperature in kelvin
deltaG is a direct measure of spontaneity

DeltaH (kJ/mol) 2NO= 90.29/mol
DeltaH (kJ/mol) Cl2= 0
DeltaH (kJ/mol) 2NOCl= 51.71/mol

DeltaS (J/mol K) 2NO= 210.65/mol
DeltaS (J/mol K) Cl2= 223.0/mol
DeltaS (J/mol K) 2NOCl= 261.6/mol

DeltaG (kJ/mol) 2NO= 86.60/mol
DeltaG (kJ/mol) Cl2= 0
DeltaG (kJ/mol) 2NOCl= 66.07/mol

my delta values from above were from calculating final minus initial values (change) but I just realized as I was typing this that I did not account so deltaS values having only joules in the numerator while the deltaG and deltaH values have kilojoules in the numerator. So my delta G answer is wrong.
Forgetting that DH is in kJ/mol and DS is in J/mol is a common mistake. You only have to make that mistake once so let this be your one time.
If you want to calculate the K for the reaction, I would go about it another way (unless you were given the values you posted in the problem).
Look up delta Go values, then
DGorxn = (n*DGoproducts) - (n*DGoreactants)
DG = DGo + RTlnK
At equilibrium, DG = 0 and this becomes
DGo = -RTlnK
Plug in DGo from above and solve for K.
