  • Card 9 / 20:
    Explain in your own words the difference between a spontaneous reaction and one that occurs instantaneously, and what causes this difference.

    A spontaneous reaction is one that has a negative ∆G and thus releases energy. However, a spontaneous reaction need not occur quickly or suddenly like an instantaneous reaction. It may occur over long periods due to a large energy of activation, which prevents the reaction from occurring quickly.
