Chapter 17 1
Gibbs Free Energy For a constant temperature and constant pressure process: -T Suniv = Hsys - T Ssys Gibbs free energy ( G)- Can be used to predict spontaneity. G < 0 The reaction is spontaneous in the forward direction. G = -T(+ Suniv) G > 0 Suniv > 0 The reaction is nonspontaneous as written. The reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction. + G = -T(- Suniv) S < 0 univ G = 0 The reaction is at equilibrium. G = -T( Suniv) = 0 Suniv = 0 2
Gibbs Free Energy G = H - T S • If you know G for reactants and products then you can calculate if a reaction is spontaneous. • If you know G for two reaction then you can calculate if the sum is spontaneous. • If you know S, H and T then you can calculate spontaneity. • Can predict the temperature when a reaction becomes spontaneous. • If you have Hvap or Hfus and S you can predict boiling and freezing points. • If you have Hvap or Hfus and T you can predict the entropy change during a phase change. • Can predict equilibrium shifts. 3

Free Energy and Equilibrium G° = -R T ln. K standard free-energy (k. J/mol) gas constant (8. 314 J/K mol) equilibrium constant (Kp, Kc, Ka, Ksp, etc. ) temperature (K) • Arguably most important equation in chemical thermodynamics! • It allows us to calculate the extent of a chemical reaction if its enthalpy and entropy changes are known. • The changes in enthalpy and entropy can be evaluated by measuring the variation of the equilibrium constant with temperature. • This relationship is only valid for the standard conditions, i. e. when the activities of all reactants and products are equal to 1. 6

G° vs G You have already delta ΔG°, ΔS° and ΔH° in which the ° indicates that all components are in their standard states. Definition of “standard”: • Even if we start a reaction at standard conditions (1 M) the reaction will quickly deviate from standard. • G° indicates whether reactants or products are favored at equilibrium. • G at any give time is used to predict the direction shift to reach equilibrium. • If a mixture is not at equilibrium, the liberation of the excess Gibbs free energy ( G) is the “driving force” for the composition of the mixture to *There is no "standard temperature", change until equilibrium is reached. 18 but we usually use 298. 15 K (25° C).
Free Energy and Equilibrium At equilibrium: At any time: G° = -R T ln K G = G° + R T ln Q reaction quotient temperature standard free-energy (K) non-standard free-energy gas constant (k. J/mol) (8. 314 J/K mol) The sign of G tells us that the reaction would have to shift to the left to reach equilibrium. G < 0, reaction will shift right G > 0, reaction will shift left G = 0, the reaction is at equilibrium The magnitude of G tells us how far it has to go to reach equilibrium. 19
Free Energy and Equilibrium G = G° + R T ln Q reaction quotient temperature standard free-energy (K) non-standard free-energy gas constant (k. J/mol) (8. 314 J/K mol) If Q/K < 1, then ln Q/K < 0; the reaction proceeds to the right ( G < 0) If Q/K > 1, then ln Q/K > 0; the reaction proceeds to the left ( G > 0) If Q/K = 1, then ln Q/K = 0; the reaction is at equilibrium ( G = 0) 20

Example 17. 8 The equilibrium constant (KP) for the reaction N 2 O 4(g) 2 NO 2(g) is 0. 113 at 298 K, which corresponds to a standard free-energy change of 5. 40 k. J/mol. In a certain experiment, the initial pressures are PNO 2 = 0. 122 atm and PN 2 O 4 = 0. 453 atm. Calculate ΔG for the reaction at these pressures and predict the direction of the net reaction toward equilibrium. Because ΔG < 0, the net reaction proceeds from left to right to reach equilibrium. 24
