Chapter 6.4, Problem 8SAQ
Summary Introduction
Delta G or ΔG is a symbol of spontaneity is used to measure whether the reaction is spontaneous in the forward or reverse direction or associated with the equilibrium constant. Enthalpy and entropy are the two factors that affect ΔG. Based on the positive and the negative values of ΔG, a reaction can be classified as an exergonic and endergonic reaction.
