Chemical Energetics and Thermodynamics · Thermodynamics

Entropy and Gibbs Free Energy

Investigating the roles of disorder and energy dispersal in determining the feasibility of chemical processes.

Key Questions

  1. 1How can a reaction be spontaneous if it is highly endothermic?
  2. 2What determines the temperature at which a non-spontaneous reaction becomes feasible?
  3. 3Why is the entropy of a system expected to increase during a phase change from solid to liquid?
