Abstract
I already said that it is important to understand and to know how to calculate and prepare different concentrations. Many chemical reactions – and all the biochemical reactions that run our bodies – take place in a solution. Now we are going to put together a formula for the Gibbs energy of a chemical in solution and a formula for calculating the Gibbs energy in a chemical reaction.
