Gibbs Free Energy and Relation
Relation between Gibb’s free energy and EMF of cell
ΔG°= -nFE°cell
n = no. of electrons
F= faraday constant
E°cell= Potential difference
ΔG° = useful work done of system
ΔG° = -nF E°cell
ΔG° = -nF x (2.303 RT/nF)log KC
ΔG° = -2.303 RT log KC
When conditions are not standard then, ΔG = -nF ECell
But at equilibrium, ECell = 0 So ΔG = -nF x 0
ΔG = 0
