As learnt in

? G of equilibrium -

\Delta G_{0}= -2.303 RT \log K_{c}
 

- wherein

At Equilibrum    

\Delta G= 0

and Q= K_{c}

 

 and

Gibb's free energy (? G) -

\Delta G= \Delta H-T \Delta S
 

- wherein

\Delta G= Gibb's free energy

\Delta H= enthalpy of reaction

\Delta S= entropy

T= temperature

 

 \Delta G^{\circ}= \Delta H^{\circ} - T\Delta S^{\circ}

             =-54.07 \times 10^{3}-298\times 10

             =-57050

\Delta G^{\circ}= -2.303\ RT \log k

\log k = \frac{57050}{2.303\times 8.314\times 298} = \frac{57050}{5705}= 10
