- Determine whether the following reactions are spontaneous or non-spontaneous. a) N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) ⟶ 2 NH3 (g), ΔG = -32,960 J b) 2 NH3 (g) ⟶ N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g), ΔG = 32,960 J HINT: The change in free energy (ΔG) for reaction is equal to the difference in free energy between the products (Gproducts) and the reactants (Greactants): ΔG = (Gproducts) - (Greactants) In spontaneous reactions, the free energy of the products (Gproducts) of a reaction is less than the free energy of the reactants (Greactants).
