Whether Gibbs energy change (ΔG) of a process is positive, negative, or equal to zero defines whether the process is spontaneous. Match the situation with its description.
-ΔG = 0

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When ΔG is zero, it means that the system is at equilibrium. This means that the forward and reverse reactions are occurring at the same rate and there is no net change in the concentration of reactants and products. Since the reaction is not proceeding in a particular direction, it is neither spontaneous nor non-spontaneous.
