Question

For the reaction, X + Y → A + B, ΔGo is –1324 kJ. Which one of the following statements is NOT valid concerning the reaction?

Answer 1

Answer:

c. The reaction will proceed rapidly from left to right.

Explanation:

The variation of the free Gibbs energy doesn't tell anything about the speed of reaction.

On the other hand, when ΔGo is negative: the reaction is spontaneous, thermodynamically favourable, and the products are more stable than the reactants
