La ciència es recorda millor quan una definició es connecta amb alguna cosa mesurable o observable.
At constant temperature and pressure, ΔG combines enthalpy and entropy to indicate thermodynamic spontaneity.

Chemical reactions rearrange bonds and redistribute energy. If the reacting system transfers energy to its surroundings as heat at constant pressure, its enthalpy change is negative.
