NEET Chemistry Gibbs Free Energy MCQ Question
Which of the following statements regarding Gibbs Free Energy and spontaneous processes is correct?
A negative change in Gibbs Free Energy indicates a spontaneous process.
A positive change in Gibbs Free Energy indicates a spontaneous process.
The Gibbs Free Energy change is independent of enthalpy and entropy changes.
A reaction with zero Gibbs Free Energy change can never occur spontaneously.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
A negative change in Gibbs Free Energy (∆G < 0) indicates that the process is spontaneous, as stated in the context that for spontaneous processes, T∆S_sys – ∆H_sys > 0 leads to ∆G < 0.
