Energy Enthalpy Entropy Free energy Gibbs Gibbs free energy Thermodynamics

AI Thread Summary

The discussion centers on understanding Gibbs Free Energy in relation to enthalpy and entropy without performing calculations. The user seeks clarification on why their interpretations of these concepts are incorrect, particularly in the context of a reaction that does not involve a change in state or temperature. The question also touches on the spontaneity of the reaction and the bond energy associated with a triple bond. Key concepts include the relationship between enthalpy, entropy, and spontaneity in thermodynamic processes. The inquiry highlights the complexities of thermodynamic principles in chemical reactions.

please post homework questions in the homework forum and fill the template

Hello,
is someone able to explain why these two are wrong. I am not sure how to figure out the enthalpy direction as the reaction is not changing state of matter, nor is it changing temperature.

(Please solve without calculating anything)

Thank you

Is the reaction spontaneous?

What is bond energy of a triple bond?

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
