when delta G is negative, the reaction is considered ______

• spontaneous; occurs without input of energy

• non-spontaneous; occurs with input of energy

• neither a or b

define free energy

• occurs without input of energy

• energy that can do work when temperature and pressure are uniform

• forward and reverse reactions occur at same rate

a reaction has a high delta g, this means that the system is

• stable

• unstable

• neither
