delta G and K

[Ariana 1D]

How do delta G and K (equilibrium constant) relate to each other?

[JadaArreola_2E]

DeltaG and K relate to each other by both being able to predict the ratio of products and reactants. They are related through the equation for deltaG0 = -RTlnK. And then from the if deltaGo < 0 K>1 and products are favored over reactants at equilibrium and if the signs are flipped then K<1. and reactants are favored over products at equilibrium. Hope this helps.

Delta G and K both have a correlation with each other and this relationship can be seen through the equation delta G= -RTlnK. The reaction is product favored when K> 1 and reactant favored when K<1. When here is large K values that means there is going to be a negative value for delta G which relates to spontaneity. When delta g is positive the reaction is spontaneous and non spontaneous when delta g is negative.

∆G (Gibbs free energy) and K (equilibrium constant) relationship is shown in the equation ∆G = - RT ln(K) -- (R = gas constant, T = temperature in Kelvin). So if ∆G is negative then the reaction is spontaneous. A spontaneous reaction will favor an increase in products at equilibrium to compensate for the large K value. In the opposite direction, if ∆G were positive, then it would make for a non-spontaneous reaction. Now the equilibrium will favor the production of reactants, the accommodate the small value of K.
