Assuming that the ∆Sº is indeed J/mol-K and not kJ/mol-K as stated, and assuming that the given values of ∆Gf and ∆Hf are at 25ºC, then, since there are 4 moles CS2(g) formed, the ∆Grx = 4x65.1 = 260.4 kJ. Also recall that ∆Gf for CH4, S8, and H2 are zero.
At 25ºC = 298ºK
K = e^-∆G/RT = e^-260.4/(0.008314 kJ/mol)(298) = e^-105 = 2.5x10^-46
At 500ºC = 773ºK
∆G = ∆H - T∆S = 4x115.3 - (773)(4x237.8) = 461.2 kJ - 735,278 J = 461.2 kJ - 735 kJ = -274 kJ
K = e^-∆G/RT = e^-(-274)/(0.008314)(773) = e^+42.6 = 3.3x10^18
