Question
**Chemical Equilibrium and Thermodynamics**

The reaction \( \text{N}_2(g) + 3\text{H}_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2\text{NH}_3(g) \) has an equilibrium constant \( K_p = 6.9 \times 10^5 \) at 25.0 °C. To find the standard Gibbs free energy change (\( \Delta G^\circ \)) for this reaction, it is necessary to use the relationship between \( \Delta G^\circ \) and the equilibrium constant:

\[
\Delta G^\circ = -RT \ln K_p
\]

Where:
- \( R \) is the universal gas constant (8.314 J/mol·K),
- \( T \) is the temperature in Kelvin,
- \( K_p \) is the equilibrium constant in question.

*Note: The temperature must be converted from Celsius to Kelvin by adding 273.15.*

### Objective

Calculate \( \Delta G^\circ \) for this reaction in units of kilojoules.

### Input Field

A field is provided to enter the calculated value:
- \( \Delta G^\circ = \) [Input Box] kJ

To perform this calculation, ensure your answer is in kilojoules by converting from joules.
