Gibbs Free Energy Flashcards
What is the sign of delta G for a spontaneous reaction?
The sign for delta G would be negative.
What is the sign for delta G for a non-spontaneous reaction?
The sign for delta G would be positive.
What would be the value of delta G at equilibrium?
Delta G would be 0 at equilibrium.
If delta G is negative (spontaneous) what would be the value for the cell potential?
The cell potential would be positive.
If delta G is positive (non-spontaneous) what would be the value of the cell potential?
The cell potential would be negative.
If delta G is zero (equilibrium) then what would be the value for the cell potential?
The cell potential would be zero.
What is the equivalent units for volts?
One volt is equivalent to 1 joule per 1 coulomb.
