Thermodynamics II: Entropy and Gibbs Energy

This lecture covers the concepts of entropy and Gibbs energy in thermodynamics, focusing on the calculation of enthalpy of reactions, the spontaneity of processes, and the equilibrium constant. It explains how to determine the spontaneity of a reaction, the significance of free enthalpy, and the stability of compounds. The lecture also delves into the relationship between entropy and temperature, the standard entropy of reactions, and the thermodynamic definition of entropy. Additionally, it discusses the impact of temperature on the spontaneity of reactions and the equilibrium state of chemical systems.
