Why don’t reactions at equilibrium go to completion?
To complete our understanding of systems that have achieved equilibrium, we need to look at the position of equilibrium through

Using the relationship between potential difference and Gibbs energy to calculate a value for the equilibrium constant, K
Ecell⦵ (the maximum potential difference between two half cells) is measured when the reactants are under standard conditions (1.00 mol
Understanding the relationship between the potential difference for an electrochemical cell and Gibbs energy
The spontaneity or feasibility of a reaction can be described by both a positive Ecell⦵ value or a negative value
A note on Gibbs free energy
The change in Gibbs free energy, ΔG, is a convenient way to determine whether a reaction is spontaneous or feasible
