The Gibbs free energy equation uses both entropy and enthalpy to calculate the energy produced or used in a reaction.
Explanation:
In most spontaneous reactions the level of disorder increases.
The Gibbs free energy equation indicates that as time goes on both the amount of heat goes down and the level of disorder increases until there is no usable heat or matter left in the universe.
