Non-Equilibrium Systems (HSC SSCE Chemistry): Flashcards

Amounts of reactants & products remain constant over time

Reactions proceeding in one direction until completion

Change in disorder or randomness of a system

Change in heat energy of a system

$\Delta S > 0$ AND $\Delta H < 0$

$\Delta G = \Delta H - T\Delta S$

Reaction will occur spontaneously

Reaction will not occur spontaneously

Neither direction favoured; transition to equilibrium

Spontaneous (negative $\Delta G$ at room temperature)
