Chapter 6, Problem 54IP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given options, the correct one which must be true for the reaction with ΔG<0 has to be identified.

Concept introduction:

The Gibbs free energy or the free energy change is a thermodynamic quantity represented by ΔG. The expression for the free energy change with respect to the Keq is written below,

 ΔG=-RTlnKeq  where, R is the gas constant, T is the temperature in Kelvin.

If ΔG<0 then the reaction is spontanous in forward reaction and so the reaction will favor products.

If ΔG>0 then the reaction is spontanous in backward reaction and so the reaction will favor reactants.

If ΔG=0 then the reaction is at equilibrium.
