Gibbs free energy (G) determines whether a chemical reaction can occur spontaneously at constant temperature and pressure. ΔG = ΔH − TΔS: negative ΔG means spontaneous; positive means non-spontaneous.

  1. 1ΔG = ΔH − TΔS
  2. 2ΔH = enthalpy change (bond energies)
  3. 3T = temperature in Kelvin
  4. 4ΔS = entropy change (disorder)
  5. 5ΔG < 0: spontaneous; ΔG > 0: non-spontaneous; ΔG = 0: equilibrium

ଇନପୁଟ୍
ΔH=−200kJ · T=298K · ΔS=+150J/K
ଫଳ
ΔG = −200−(298×0.15) = −244.7 kJ → spontaneous
Both enthalpy and entropy favour spontaneity
