Free Energy and Thermodynamics
Free energy does not contradict the laws of thermodynamics; instead, it works within the framework provided by these laws. Free energy, specifically Gibbs free energy (G) and Helmholtz free energy (A), are thermodynamic potentials that help predict the direction of spontaneous processes and the maximum work obtainable from a system. Here’s how free energy aligns…
