Resumen de Rubber Bands, Free Energy, and Le Châtelier's Principle
The following simple classroom activity illustrates the relationship of entropy to molecular disorder in polymer chains. It also deals with free energy, the Gibbs equation, spontaneous versus non-spontaneous processes, Le Châtelier's principle, and the interplay of intermolecular forces and enthalpy. It is suitable for an advanced high school or college-level general chemistry course.
