I saw most TA's posting their notes, so I assume they are just cancelled.

Ryan Yee 1J wrote:Yes, because of the equation: delta(G) = delta(G0) + RTln(Q) and since we are at equilibrium, Q=K as well as delta(G0) = -RTln(K). So if you plug things back in, you get delta(G) = -RTln(K) + RTln(K) which equals 0
