Question

tell me about gibb's free energy?

Answer 1

In common language
Gibbs free energy denoted by G is gives the measure of how feasible the reaction is
i.e. if it is spontaneous (happens on its own)
or non spontaneous (does not happen by its own)

G value cannot be calculated but ∆G value can be

if ∆G <0 then the reaction is spontaneous
if ∆G>0 then the reaction is non spontaneous

∆G can be calculated by using the formula
∆G= ∆H- T∆S

Answer 2

In thermodynamics, the Gibbs free energy(IUPAC recommended name: Gibbs energy or Gibbs function; also known as free enthalpy[1]to distinguish it from Helmholtz free energy) is a thermodynamic potential that can be used to calculate the maximum of reversible work that may be performed by a thermodynamic system at a constant temperature and pressure (isothermal, isobaric). The Gibbs free energy (ΔGº = ΔHº-TΔSº) (J in SI units) is the maximum amount of non-expansion work that can be extracted from a thermodynamically closed system(one that can exchange heat and work with its surroundings, but not matter); this maximum can be attained only in a completely reversible process. When a system transforms reversibly from an initial state to a final state, the decrease in Gibbs free energy equals the work done by the system to its surroundings, minus the work of the pressure forces.
