Reactions: Spontaneous vs Non? The Answer Will Shock You!
Thermodynamics, a cornerstone of chemical understanding, governs the spontaneity of reactions. Entropy, a measure of disorder within a system, directly impacts the favorability of spontaneous vs nonspontaneous reactions. The Gibbs Free Energy, calculated through equations like ΔG = ΔH – TΔS, determines the spontaneity of a reaction at a given temperature. Knowledge of these fundamental […]
