Now when it comes to Gibbs free energy of a reaction, we're going to say it's similar to the change in the standard entropy of a reaction formula. Here we're going to say the change in our standard Gibbs free energy of reaction can be calculated with free energy of formations, so ΔG⁰F these values will always be provided. That's because so many different compounds and elements have their own unique value. It'd be impossible for you to memorize all of them. So we'll be given to you in a chart within the question in some way.
Now elements in natural state tablet gives free energy of formation equal to 0, much like the change in the standard enthalpy of reactions when they also are in their natural states they're equal to 0. Now here we're going to say Gibbs free energy of a reaction formula is the change in the standard Gibbs free energy of a reaction equals the summation. So here this is Gibbs free energy of our reaction in kilojoules. Summation here is just Sigma or the sum of all your products, all your reactants and is the moles of your substance.
So it would be moles of the standard Gibbs for energy reformation of products minus the summation of the moles of Gibbs free energy of reactants products minus reactants. Here again, we're going to say that standard Gibbs free energy formation is in units of kilojoules per mole. So we're going to be utilizing this formula to help us figure out the change in the standard and the standard Gibbs free energy of a reaction, right? So we've seen this before within other variables. Now we're basically applying it to Gibbs free energy.
