Question
How does the value of G for a reaction relate to the equilibrium constant for the reaction? What does a negative G for a reaction imply about K for the reaction? A positive G ?
Step 1
Step 1: The relationship between the Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) and the equilibrium constant (K) for a reaction is given by the equation: ΔG = -RT ln(K) where R is the universal gas constant and T is the temperature in Kelvin. Show more…

How does the value of $\Delta G^{\circ}$ for a reaction reaction relate to the equilibrium constant for the reaction? What does a negative $\Delta G^{\circ}$ for a reaction imply about $K$ for the reaction? A positive $\Delta G^{\circ} ?$
How is the value of the equilibrium constant $K_{\mathrm{p}}$ for the reaction $$ 2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(g)+\mathrm{N}_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{H}_{2}(g)+2 \mathrm{NO}(g) $$ related to the value of $K_{\mathrm{p}}$ for this reaction at the same temperature? $$ \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(g)+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{N}_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{H}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{NO}(g) $$
