The direction of change in a reaction depends on the combined changes of entropy, heat of reaction, and temperature. If this is expressed as ∆G=∆H - T∆S, what would it mean if the value for free energy (∆G) is zero
A.The reaction is spontaneous
B.The reaction is in equilibrium
C.The reaction isn’t spontaneous
D.No reaction is possible

When gibb's free energy (âG) is equal to zero the reaction is in equilibrium meaning that the forward and reverse reactions are proceeding at the same rate.

i'd say B, but I didn't do too well in chemistry... it look sright though b/c delta H and T delta S would be =
