For a particular reaction, ΔH=−238.4 kJ and ΔS=−80.0 J/K.
Calculate ΔG for this reaction at 298 K.
For this question I first used the formula deltaG=deltaH-TdeltaS.
Since I am given delta H and delta S I plug those into the formula along with the temperature in kelvins. Next I divided -80.0J/K by 1000J since we need to have the same units when multiplying. So by multiplying everything I got -214.6jk as deltaG.

Was it marked wrong? Every step seems to be right, if anything it might be a calculation error? If anything, try (-80.0J/k * 1kj/1000J) for delta S.
