Why Gibbs free energy matters
Why Gibbs free energy matters
Exothermic reactions are not automatically the only feasible ones, and endothermic reactions are not automatically impossible. Gibbs free energy brings together enthalpy and entropy so you can predict thermodynamic feasibility at constant temperature and pressure. The key relationship is:
