NEET · Chemistry · STD 11 - 6.1. Equilibrium - 1 (chemical Equilibrium)

Which of the following statements is correct for a reversible process in a state of equilibrium?

  1. A \(\Delta G° = {-2.30\, RT \,log\, K}\)
  2. B \(\Delta G° = 2.30 \,RT \,log\, K\)
  3. C \(\Delta G = -2.30\, RT \,log \,K\)
  4. D \(\Delta G = 2.30 \,RT \,log \,K\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\Delta G° = {-2.30\, RT \,log\, K}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\Delta G=\Delta G^{o}+2.303 R T \log K \log Q\) At equilibrium when \(\Delta G=0\) and \(Q=K\) then \(\Delta \mathrm{G}=\Delta \mathrm{G}^{o}+2.303\, \mathrm{RT}\, \log \,\mathrm{K}=0\)
