Spontaneous Reactions Proceed forward on their own without outside or external cause. Proceed forward on their own without outside or external cause. Certain conditions can help us predict whether a reaction will occur spontaneously or not. Certain conditions can help us predict whether a reaction will occur spontaneously or not.

Factors that Determine Spontaneity Change in Enthalpy (∆H) Exothermic (- ∆H) reactions are more likely to be spontaneous. A + B → C + D + energy Why? Why? Release energy, producing lower energy more stable products. Release energy, producing lower energy more stable products. Require less activation energy, so are easier to start Require less activation energy, so are easier to start

Factors that Determine Spontaneity Change in Entropy (∆S) Reactions with an INCREASE in Entropy are more likely to be spontaneous. Reactions with an INCREASE in Entropy are more likely to be spontaneous. Entropy is a measure of the disorder, randomness or lack of organization in a system. Entropy is a measure of the disorder, randomness or lack of organization in a system. + ∆S = increase entropy + ∆S = increase entropy or disorder

Entropy deals with the Second Law of Thermodynamics, which basically states that all systems in the universe progress to a state of higher disorder.

Gibbs Free Energy Gibbs Free Energy (∆G) A portion of energy from a spontaneous reaction that can perform useful work. Ex: battery, glowstick Ex: battery, glowstick Spontaneous Reactions are - ∆G They give off free energy Nonspontaneous Reactions are + ∆G They require the input of free energy to occur When a rxn is no longer spontaneous and producing free energy the system is at equilibrium and ∆G = 0 When a rxn is no longer spontaneous and producing free energy the system is at equilibrium and ∆G = 0
