Question

Of energy-absobing reaction and energy-releasing reaction which one is more likely to start spontaneosly and why?

Answer 1

Answer:

Energy releasing reaction = exergonic reaction (negative G) is more likely to be spontaneous.

Explanation:

Exergonic reactions do not need any input of energy, and therefore are happening spontaneously. On the other hand, endergonic reactions need an energy input. These reactions are often paired = coupled reactions.

Hope this will help :)
