The free energy change for a chemical reaction is given by (where, K = equilibrium constant)
A
RT lnK
B
-RT lnK
C
-R lnK
D
T lnK
Correct Answer: -RT lnK
The free energy change for a chemical reaction in terms of equilibrium constant is given by.$$\Delta {G^ \circ } = - RTlnK$$
Since at equilibrium $$\Delta G$$ of the reaction $$=0$$
