Silver chloride is broken down in this equilibrium reaction: AgCl(s) <--> Ag+(aq) + Cl− (aq). Given the standard enthalpies of formation: HfAgCl= -127.07, HfAg+ = 105.58, and HfCl- = -167.2 and their standard entropy values: SAgCl = 96.2, SAg+ = 72.68, and SCl- = 56.4, calculate the reaction's change in free energy (delta Grxn).
