Re: Gibbs
Gibbs free energy change and the Nernst equation are essential tools in predicting the spontaneity and feasibility of electrochemical reactions, providing a mathematical basis for understanding the underlying thermodynamics of these processes.
Re: Gibbs
The Gibbs free energy equation provides a mathematical means for determining whether a reaction will proceed spontaneously or non-spontaneously. A negative ΔG indicates a spontaneous reaction, while a positive ΔG indicates a non-spontaneous reaction. The Nernst Equation helps calculate cell potentials under non-standard conditions: E = E° - (RT/nF) * ln(Q). A positive E°cell suggests a spontaneous reaction, and a negative E°cell suggests a non-spontaneous reaction
