Acetic acid forms a dimer in the gas phase:

Question Image

The dimer is held together by two hydrogen bonds with a total strength of 66.5 kJ per mole of the dimer. At 25°C, the equilibrium constant for the dimerisation is 1.3×103 (pressure in atm). What is ΔS for the reaction? Assume that ΔH does not vary with temperature.
