What is Gibbs Free Energy and Reaction Favorability about?
Gibbs free energy (G) is defined as enthalpy (H) minus the product of temperature (T) and entropy (S). G can determine if a reaction is spontaneous by measuring the balance between the enthalpy and entropy driving forces. If the change in G (ΔG) is negative, the reaction is spontaneous as it is favored by both a negative enthalpy and positive entropy change. Conversely, a positive ΔG means the reaction is non-spontaneous.
