Practice Problem: Free Energy and Nonstandard Conditions

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the free energy change for a chemical reaction under non-standard conditions. It begins by introducing the reaction and the given non-standard conditions, such as temperature and pressure. The tutorial then explains why these conditions are non-standard and how they affect the free energy change. It provides a step-by-step guide to using the equation delta G = delta G° + RTlnQ, where Q is the reaction quotient. The tutorial concludes with the calculation of delta G, resulting in a value of 9.7 kJ/mol.

What is the value of the gas constant (R) used in the calculations?
