Expert Solution
Step 1

Gibbs free energy is related to enthalpy change and change in entropy at constant temperature as,

                                          ΔG° = ΔH° – TΔS°

Where, ΔG° is the Gibbs free energy of the reaction.

            ΔH° is the enthalpy change of the reaction= -158.0 kJmol-1 = -158.0 x 1000 Jmol-1 = -158000 Jmol-1

            ΔS° is the entropy change of the reaction = -219.9  JK-1 mol-1

             T is the temperature = 387 K
