>Entropy and Free Energy Free Energy and SpontaneousReactions

A nonspontaneous reaction is a reaction that does not favor the formation of products at the specified conditions.

Photosynthesis is a nonspontaneous reaction that requires an input of energy.

>Entropy and Free Energy18.4 Free Energy and SpontaneousReactions

Spontaneous reactions produce substantial amounts of products at equilibrium and release free energy.

Free energy is energy that is available to do work.

>Entropy and Free Energy Entropy

Entropy is a measure of the disorder of a system.

• Physical and chemical systems attain the lowest possible energy.

• The 2nd law of thermodynamics states that the natural tendency is for systems to move in the direction of maximum disorder or randomness.

Entropy

An increase in entropy favors the spontaneous chemical reaction; a decrease favors the nonspontaneous reaction.

For a given substance, the entropy of the gas is greater than the entropy of the liquid or the solid. Similarly, the entropy of the liquid is greater than that of the solid.

Entropy increases when a substance is divided into parts.

Slide 10 of 28



Entropy tends to increase in chemical reactions in which the total number of product molecules is greater than the total number of reactant molecules.

Slide 11 of 28



Entropy tends to increase when temperature increases. As the temperature increases, the molecules move faster and faster, which increases the disorder.

Enthalpy, Entropy, and Free Energy

Enthalpy

The sum of the internal energy of the system plus the product of the pressure of the gas in the system and its volume

The numerical value of ΔG is negative in spontaneous processes because the system loses free energy.

>Entropy and Free Energy

Gibbs Free energy questions are all about find out if ΔG is negative or positive.

If ΔG is negative then the reaction is spontaneous

The secret is the negative (subtraction) symbol between the ΔH and the T Δs
