The e.m.f. of a Daniell cell at 298 K is E1. Zn/SO4 (0.01 M) || CuSO4 (1.0 M)/Cu. When the concentration of ZnSO4 is 1.0 M and that of CuSO4 is 0.01 M, the e.m.f. is changed to E2. What is the relationship between E1 and E2 ?
The energy associated with a chemical reaction that can be used to do work.It is the sum of its enthalpy plus the product of the temperature and the entropy (S) of the system.
The Gibbs free energy is the maximum amount of non-expansion work that can be extracted from a thermodynamically closed system. In completely reversible process maximum enthalpy can be obtained.
ΔG=ΔH−TΔS
If both it’s intensive properties and extensive properties are constant then thermodynamic system is in equilibrium. Extensive properties imply the U, G, A.
