According to Gibbs free energy and assume constant pressure (Helmholtz ΔG=ΔGΘ+RTln(K)Where K is the equilibrium constant.
At equilibrium ΔG=0:

0=Δ+RTln(K)→Δ=−RTln(K)

Solve for the equilibrium constant:

−ΔRT=ln(K)[P][S]=K=exp(−ΔRT)
using this equation
Just put into the equation and calculate the equilibrium constant K.
hope it helps
