    Study Notes

    Laws of Thermodynamics

    • The first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed.
    • The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of a closed system tends to increase over time.
    • The third law of thermodynamics states that as the temperature of a system approaches absolute zero, the entropy of the system approaches a minimum value.

    Thermodynamic Concepts

    • Gibbs Free Energy (ΔG) determines whether a process will occur spontaneously or not.
    • The equation ΔG = ΔH - TΔS represents the relationship between enthalpy, entropy, and temperature.
    • For a spontaneous process, ΔG < 0.
    • For a non-spontaneous process, ΔG > 0.
    • At equilibrium, ΔG = 0.
    • For a reversible process, ΔG = 0.

    Thermodynamic Relationships

    • The maximum amount of useful work that can be obtained from a system at constant temperature and pressure is described by the concept of available work.
    • The equation ΔG = ΔG° + RT ln(Q) represents the relationship between Gibbs free energy and reaction quotient under non-standard conditions.

    Reaction Types

    • Exothermic reactions release heat, ΔH < 0.
    • Endothermic reactions absorb heat, ΔH > 0.
    • A reaction is spontaneous if ΔG < 0.
    • A reaction is non-spontaneous if ΔG > 0.
    • A reaction is at equilibrium if ΔG = 0.
    • An exergonic reaction has a negative ΔG and is spontaneous.
    • An endergonic reaction has a positive ΔG and is non-spontaneous.

    Reaction Conditions

    • When products and reactants are not both at 1 M, the Gibbs free energy is affected.
    • As reactants are increased compared to products, the Gibbs free energy decreases.
    • The equation ΔG = ΔG° + RT ln(Q) is used to calculate the Gibbs free energy under non-standard conditions.

    Biological Energy

    • The body phosphorylates ATP as a source of energy currency.
    • Enzymes do not change the ΔG of a reaction, but they lower the activation energy.

    Gibbs Free Energy Equations

    • The equation ΔG = ΔH - TΔS represents the relationship between enthalpy, entropy, and temperature.
    • The equation ΔG = ΔG° + RT ln(Q) represents the relationship between Gibbs free energy and reaction quotient under non-standard conditions.
    • The equation ΔG° = -RT ln(K) represents the relationship between Gibbs free energy and equilibrium constant.

    Reaction Quotient and Gibbs Free Energy

    • The reaction quotient (Q) represents the ratio of product concentrations to reactant concentrations.
    • The relationship between ΔG and ΔG° for a reaction under non-standard conditions is ΔG = ΔG° + RT ln(Q).
    • The activation energy of a reaction is the minimum energy required for a reaction to occur.
