Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A more positive $\Delta S ^ { \circ }$ (change in entropy) contributes to making $\Delta G ^ { \circ }$ (Gibbs free energy change) more negative, according to the equation $\Delta G ^ { \circ } = \Delta H ^ { \circ } - T\Delta S ^ { \circ }$, where a more positive $\Delta S ^ { \circ }$ means the system is gaining more disorder, which is thermodynamically favorable.
