We know that the Gibbs free energy is related to the equilibrium constant by the following equation: $$\Delta_\mathrm{r}G^\circ=-RT\ln K$$ We also know the Van't Hoff equation: $$\ln\left(\frac{K_2}{K_1}\right)=\frac{-\Delta H^\circ}{R}\left(\frac{1}{T_2}-\frac{1}{T_1}\right)$$
$\left(R = 8.314\ \mathrm{J~mol^{-1}~K^{-1}}\right)$
My question is: what kind of $K$ do we use for these equations? Concentration quotient ($K_c$) or pressure quotient ($K_p$)?
