Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction, 2Fe3++3I−⇌2Fe2++I3−2\text{Fe}^{3+} + 3\text{I}^- \rightleftharpoons 2\text{Fe}^{2+} + \text{I}_3^- . The standard reduction potentials in acidic conditions are 0.77 and 0.54V respectively for Fe3+/Fe2+\text{Fe}^{3+} / \text{Fe}^{2+} and I3−/I−\text{I}_3^- / \text{I}^- couples.
