NEET Chemistry Gibbs Free Energy MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 11

Given that the standard Gibbs energy change, ∆rG° at a certain temperature is -13.6 kJ mol–1, which of the following best expresses the relationship between the equilibrium constant (K) and Gibbs energy?

A

log K = -∆rG° / 2.303RT

B

log K = ∆rG° / 2.303RT

C

log K = -2.303RT / ∆rG°

D

log K = 2.303RT / ∆rG°

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The relationship is derived from the equation ∆rG° = -RT ln K, which can be expressed as log K = -∆rG° / 2.303RT by converting to base 10 logarithms.
