This lecture explores the concepts of Gibbs Free Energy and Entropy, fundamental for predicting the spontaneity of chemical reactions. It examines how these thermodynamic properties determine reaction favorability.
MIT 5.111 Principles of Chemical Science, Fall 2014
If you mix two compounds together will they react spontaneously? How do you know? Find out the key to spontaneity in this lecture. Also, what does Robert Frost’s poetry have to do with entropy, and how can you prepare toothpaste for an elephant? Find out.
