An exergonic reaction is a chemical reaction where the change in the free energy is negative (there is a net release of free energy),[1] indicating a spontaneous reaction. For processes that take place under constant pressure and temperature conditions, the Gibbs free energy is used whereas the Helmholtz energy is used for processes that take place under constant volume and temperature conditions.
Symbolically, the release of free energy, G, in an exergonic reaction (at constant pressure and temperature) is denoted as
{\displaystyle \Delta G=G_{\rm {products}}-G_{\rm {reactants}}<0.\,}
Although exergonic reactions are said to occur spontaneously, this does not imply that the reaction will take place at an observable rate. For instance, the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide is very slow in the absence of a suitable catalyst. It has been suggested that eager would be a more intuitive term in this context.[2]
More generally, the terms exergonic and endergonic relate to the free energy change in any process, not just chemical reactions. An example of an exergonic reaction is cellular respiration. This relates to the degrees of freedom as a consequence of entropy, the temperature, and the difference in heat released or absorbed.
By contrast, the terms exothermic and endothermic relate to the overall exchange of heat during a process

Answer:
6626 g
Explanation:
Given that:
Density of water = 1.00 g/ml, volume of water = 42800 ml.
Since density = mass/ volume
mass of water = volume of water * density of water = 42800 ml * 1 g/ml = 42800 g
Initial temperature of water = 22°C and final temperature of water = 45°C.
specific heat capacity for water = 4.184 J/g°C
ΔT water = 45 - 22 = 23°C
For iron:
mass = m,
specific heat capacity for iron = 0.444 J/g°C
Initial temperature of iron = 1445°C and final temperature of water = 45°C.
ΔT iron = 45 - 1445 = -1400°C
Quantity of heat (Q) to raised the temperature of a body is given as:
Q = mCΔT
The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of water is equal to the temperature loss by the iron.
Q water (gain) + Q iron (loss) = 0
Q water = - Q iron
42800 g × 4.184 J/g°C × 23°C = -m × 0.444 J/g°C × -1400°C
m = 4118729.6/621.6
m = 6626 g
