How can a thermodynamically unfavorable reaction be made thermodynamically favorable? By coupling it with a series of favorable reactions such that the reactions add up to produce an overall reaction with G° = 0. By coupling it with a series of favorable reactions such that the reactions add up to produce an overall reaction with a positive G°. By coupling it with a series of unfavorable reactions such that the reactions add up to produce an overall reaction with a negative G°. By coupling it with a series of favorable reactions such that the reactions add up to produc

Can you complete the last option. I think it got cut off.
?
By coupling it with a series of favorable reactions such that the reactions add up to produce an overall reaction with a negative G°. sorry about that
No worries.
Negative G is spontaneous, so I think we can eliminate the options that don't have that for overall.
And I don't think that coupling with unfavorable would be helpful...
ok down to C or D I think it's D but i'm not sure
I agree :)
sweet!
Yup!
