This project was preformed to supply Libretext Authors with videos on General Chemistry topics which can be used to enhance their projects. Also, these videos are meant to act as a learning resource for all General Chemistry students.
Video Topics
G and Ecell are related by the equation: G° = -NFE°cell
G° = Gibbs free energy in J/mol
N = number of electrons transferred in the reaction
F = Faraday constant = 96,485 C/mol e-
E°cell = Volt
Remember (V)(C) = J
Positive E°cell → Negative G° → Spontaneous
Negative E°cell → Positive G° → Non-Spontaneous
The video contains an example problem where G° for a reaction is calculation from a given E°cell.
