In any spontaneous process, the __________ free energy decreases.
A
Helmholtz
B
Gibbs
C
Both A & B
D
Neither A nor B
Correct Answer: Both A & B
For any spontaneous process $$dG \leqslant 0,\,\,dA \leqslant 0$$And usually spontaneous process takes place when there are finite differences so, the process will be usually irreversible.
Hence $$dG So, free energy goes on decreasing and when the finite difference becomes infinitesimal difference it becomes constant.
