Question
question 5 1 pts a chemical reaction that has a positive δg is best described as ... endergonic. entropic. spontaneous. exergonic.
Brief Explanations
In thermodynamics, a reaction with positive $\Delta G$ (Gibbs - free energy change) requires an input of energy to proceed. Endergonic reactions are non - spontaneous and absorb energy from the surroundings. Exergonic reactions have a negative $\Delta G$ and are spontaneous. Entropic refers to entropy changes and is not the best description for a positive $\Delta G$ reaction.
