Gibbs and Work

Postby Jasmin Argueta 1K » Fri Feb 22, 2019 12:09 am

What is the relationship between Gibbs free energy and the maximum potential energy of a reaction? Wmax is equal to nFE does that mean G is equal to -nFE.

Yes Delta G = -nFE because Delta G = We where We is the maximum non expansion work of the system.
