Need to calculate gibbs free energy and equilibrium constant at 298K of

Mn04- + Fe+2 <--->  Fe+3 + Mn+2

I balance it to

MnO4- + 8H+ + 5Fe+2 <---> 5Mn+2 + 4H20 + 5Fe+3

K = [Mn+2][Fe+3]^5  /  [Mno4-][Mn+2]^5


i also know that G = -RTLnK


i dont have any other info please help!

you should be able to look up thermodynamic data in the back of your book

you can look up Gibb's free energy for products and reactants

change in G = G products - G reactants

then solve for K
