Gibbs Free Energy Calculator

🔥 Thermochemistry & Bonding. Use the Gibbs free energy formula to find δg, δh, temperature, δs: pick the value you want, type the others, and the answer updates as you go.

ΔG=ΔH−TΔS\Delta G = \Delta H - T\Delta S

ΔG < 0 → the reaction goes by itself (spontaneous).

ΔG-32.958 kJ/mol

Pick the ○ next to the value you want to find, fill in the others, and it solves as you type.

Worked example

Find the δg when ΔH = -92.2 kJ/mol, Temperature = 298 K, ΔS = -198.8 J/(mol·K).

Using Δ G = Δ H - TΔ S: ΔG = -32.958 kJ/mol.

Frequently asked questions

What is the formula for Gibbs free energy?

Δ G = Δ H - TΔ S. ΔG < 0 → the reaction goes by itself (spontaneous).

What do the letters stand for, and what units are used?

ΔG in kJ/mol, ΔH in kJ/mol, Temperature in K, ΔS in J/(mol·K).

How do you calculate δg?

Put the values into Δ G = Δ H - TΔ S. For example, with ΔH = -92.2 kJ/mol, Temperature = 298 K, ΔS = -198.8 J/(mol·K), δg = -32.958 kJ/mol.

Can I solve for a different value?

Yes. In the calculator above, pick the circle next to any value (δg, δh, temperature, δs) and fill in the others: it rearranges the formula for you.
