DGorxn = S mDGof (products) - S nDGof (reactants)
Another way to calculate DGorxn
From standard free energies of formation, DGof
DGof = the free energy change that occurs when 1 mol of compound
is made from its elements, with all components in their standard states.
Thus,
DGof values have properties similar to DHof values.
