Answer: (d) e^12

Explanation:

The relationship between the standard free energy change, ΔG, and the equilibrium constant, K at a particular temperature is represented Using the formula ΔG = - RTlnK, where G = - 30, RT = - 2.5 and [Pi] = 1

lnK = ΔG/-RT

lnK = - 30/-2.5

lnK = 12

taking exponents of both sides

e^ (lnK) = e^12

K = e^12
