Second Law of Thermodynamics: Chemistry For Engineers - Laboratory Activity 4

This chemistry lab activity document contains instructions and questions about the second law of thermodynamics. Students are asked to observe figures showing the relationship between temperature, enthalpy and entropy, and to identify spontaneous reactions based on Gibbs free energy. They are then questioned about which temperatures maximize reactants or products, and which reaction type from the figures certain sample reactions would belong to.
