Free energy changes for two reaction mechanism 'X' and 'Y are respectively - 15 and - 5 units. It implies that X is
A. Slower than Y
B. Faster than Y
C. Three times slower than Y
D. Three times faster than Y
Answer: Option B
Solution (By Examveda Team)
As, we know the relation $$\Delta G = \Delta {G^ \circ } + RTlnQ$$ where $$Q =$$ reaction quotient, higher the value of gibbs free energy change $$ \Rightarrow $$ higher is the value of $$Q \Rightarrow $$ faster is the rate of the reaction.This Question Belongs to Chemical Engineering >> Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics
