If ΔG (free energy change) for a chemical reaction is very large and negative, then the reaction is_______________________?
Correct answer: C. Very much feasible
- A. Not feasible
- B. Just feasible
- C. Very much feasible
- D. Unpredictable as ΔG is no measure of feasibility of a reaction
Explanation
A large negative ΔG indicates a strongly thermodynamically spontaneous or feasible forward reaction under the specified conditions. It does not indicate how fast the reaction occurs, which is a kinetic issue.
