The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "At equilibrium, ΔG = ……………", we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Concept of Equilibrium**: At equilibrium, the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal. This means that the system is in a state of balance. 2. **Recall the Gibbs Free Energy Equation**: The Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) for a reaction is given by the equation: \[ \Delta G = \Delta G^\circ + 2.303 RT \log Q_C \] where: - ΔG° is the standard Gibbs free energy change, - R is the universal gas constant, - T is the temperature in Kelvin, - Q_C is the reaction quotient. 3. **Apply the Concept at Equilibrium**: At equilibrium, the reaction quotient (Q_C) becomes the equilibrium constant (K_C). Therefore, we can rewrite the equation as: \[ \Delta G = \Delta G^\circ + 2.303 RT \log K_C \] 4. **Set ΔG to Zero at Equilibrium**: At equilibrium, ΔG is equal to zero: \[ 0 = \Delta G^\circ + 2.303 RT \log K_C \] 5. **Rearrange the Equation**: Rearranging the equation gives: \[ \Delta G^\circ = -2.303 RT \log K_C \] 6. **Conclusion**: Since we established that ΔG equals zero at equilibrium, we conclude: \[ \Delta G = 0 \] ### Final Answer: At equilibrium, ΔG = 0.
