CHM 101 Chemical Thermodynamics Objective Question

Question

If Q = K, what is ΔG?
Options
A ΔG < 0
B ΔG > 0
C ΔG = 0
Correct Answer
D ΔG is undefined
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

If Q = K, the system is already at equilibrium, ln(Q/K) = 0, so ΔG = 0, and no net change occurs.

Hint

The notes explain this case.
