To explain the state of chemical reactions based on the values of Gibbs free energy (ΔG), we will analyze three scenarios: when ΔG = 0, ΔG < 0, and ΔG > 0. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **When ΔG = 0:** - In this scenario, the system is at equilibrium. This means that the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. There is no net change in the concentrations of reactants and products over time. - Example: Consider a reaction where reactants A and B are in equilibrium with product C. At this point, the system has reached a state where the free energy change (ΔG) is zero, indicating that the system is stable and no further spontaneous change will occur. ...
