"The standard electrode potential for reduction of bromine dissolved in water, corresponding to the reaction

Br2 (aq) + 2 e- -> 2 Br-

is Eº = 1.087 V.

Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction

Br2(l) <-> Br2(aq)
"


Get me going please. Do I use ?

Yes. ln K = nFE/RT. That is correct :)
