There are few tables of equilibrium constants. Instead, use tables
of Gibbs free energies of formation. These are widely available. My
favorite tables for inorganic compounds are those (published as a
separate booklet) accompanying the chemistry text by Breck, Brown and
McCowan. Most chemistry libraries will however have far more complete
thermodynamic compendia in which such information can be obtained. Just
ask your librarian. Be careful to note the table's standard state
definition (temperature, etc.). This varies from table to table and is
crucial to equilibrium constant calculations.
