Problem

A reaction has an equilibrium constant of 4.0 at 300 K and 8.0 at 600 K. Calculate the standard free energy change implied by each temperature and state, in one sentence, whether the assumption of a temperature-independent standard free energy change is supported by the data. Use R=8.314 J mol−1K−1R = 8.314\,\text{J mol}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}.
