The correct answer is: 0.5[2×86,600-R298ln(1.6×1012)]
Δ G reac = - 2.303 RT log K P

= - RT ln K P

=-R298ln 1.6×1012

ΔGreac=2ΔGfNO2-2ΔGfNO

-R298ln 1.6×1012=2ΔGfNO2-2×86.6×103

2ΔGfNO2=-R298ln1.6×1012+2×86,600

Δ G f NO 2 = 86,600 - R 2 9 8 2 ln 1.6 × 1 0 1 2

= 0.5 2 × 86,600 - R 2 9 8 ln 1.6 × 1 0 1 2
