- Is a reaction feasable? Gibbs free energy
- G = H - T S
- S = In JK mol so we need to devide it by 1000 when doing calculations
- If delta G = 0 or minus the reaction is feasable
- Units are always Kjmol
- FACT!!!!
- If delta G is 0 or minus, this doesn't mean a reaction is ACTUALLY going to happen as the rate may be very slow or the reaction might have a high activation energy
- To work out temperature
- Rearrange equation bearing in mind that delta G is always 0
