Defining Spontaneity
We can use the 2nd Law to determine if a process
is spontaneous DSuni = DSsys + DSsurr > 0
This is not ideal, since we need DSsurr and cant
determine spontaneity based solely on the system
G = H TS
A = U TS
Gibbs Energy
G = H TS
dG = dH TdS SdT
At constant T dG = dH TdS
-TdSuniverse = dG 0
dG 0 at constant T, P
< 0 for spontaneous, = 0 at equilibrium

Helmholtz Energy
A = U TS
dA = dU TdS SdT
At constant T dA = dU TdS
-TdSuniverse = dA 0
dA 0 at constant T, V
< 0 for spontaneous, = 0 at equilibrium

DG?
(a) Ice melts at 0 C and 1 atm?
(b)
(c)
DH
TDS = DG < 0
A + B C
positive at all T
Rxn reverses
negative at all T
Rxn progresses
Low T, DH dominates
High T, DS dominates
High T, DS dominates
Low T, DH dominates
