Gibbs Free energy
How do you know what temperature to use for delta G when it’s not given in the question?

Re: Gibbs Free energy
Standard temperature is 25 degrees celcius, however for Gibbs free energy we always use Kelvin so it is 273+25 which is 298 K

Re: Gibbs Free energy
Sometimes, if given enough values, you may have the use the equation PV=nRT to solve for temperature.

Re: Gibbs Free energy
If the temperature is not given try the ideal gas law, however, if that isn't possible, then use k=298.
