Question

What does Gibbs free energy predict?

Answer 1

Answer:

It predicts whether or not a reaction will be spontaneous.

Explanation:

The equation;

∆G= ∆H - T∆S enables us to obtain the Gibbs free energy of a chemical process.

The Gibbs free energy value tells us whether a chemical process will be spontaneous or not.

When;

∆G>0 the reaction is not spontaneous

∆G=0 the reaction is at equilibrium

∆G<0 the reaction is spontaneous
