Explanation / Answer

Rearrange the equation.

I'm not quite sure whether you mean show steps for this rearrangement

or show how to input values.

I'll just do both.

You start with deltaG = deltaGo + RTlnQ

Subtract deltaGo from both side (or add -deltaGo, same thing)

You get

deltaG - deltaGo = RTlnQ

Then simply divide by RlnQ (or multiply by 1/RlnQ, again exact same thing worded differently)

This gives

T = (deltaG - deltaGo)/(RlnQ)

So to input values

Add delta G and -deltaGo

Multiply by (1/RlnQ)

resulting equation is T = (deltaG - deltaGo)/(RlnQ)
