If it is thermodynamically favored for a reaction to occur forward and reverse, does that mean that the standard enthalpy of the reaction is close to 0?
Reverse Reactions: Standard Enthalpy & Thermodynamics
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the relationship between standard enthalpy and thermodynamic favorability of reactions. It concludes that if both forward and reverse reactions are thermodynamically favored, the standard enthalpy change is indeed close to 0. Additionally, when the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are comparable, the standard Gibbs Free Energy change approaches 0, indicating equilibrium conditions.
