The answer is DeltaG^@ = +24.5 "kJ/mol".

The standard-state free energy of reaction, or DeltaG^@, refers to the free energy of reaction at standard state conditions, and can be calculated using

DeltaG^@ = DeltaH^@ - T* DeltaS^@

Again, this is as straighforward as it gets, just plug in your values and solve for DeltaG^@.

DeltaG^@ = "-50.0 kJ/mol" -"298.15 K" * ("-250" "J"/("mol" * "K"))

DeltaG^@ = "-50.0 kJ/mol" + "74.5 kJ/mol" = "+24.5 kJ/mol"
