These two properties can be related to free energy by theGibbs-Helmholtz equation. delta G = delta H - T(delta S), where delta G is free energy and T is temperature. If delta H is negative it will release energy. If delta S is positive then that will contribute to increasing the overall energy released in the reaction. Also, if delta S is positive, increasing T will also increase the amount of G. You can go into much greater detail that this, but I hope this helps. Gibbs energy (also referred to as G) is also the chemical potential that is minimized when a system reaches equilibrium at constant pressure and temperature.
Gibbs Free Energy (G) - The energy associated with a chemical reaction that can be used to do work. The free energy of a system is the sum of its enthalpy (H) plus the product of the temperature (Kelvin) and the entropy (S) of the system:
Recall from the enthalpy notes that reactions can be classified according to the change in enthalpy (heat):

Reactions can also be classified according to the change in the free energy of the reaction:

If a reaction is favorable for both enthalpy ( H < 0 ) and entropy ( S > 0) changes, then the reaction will be SPONTANEOUS ( G < 0 ) at any temperature. If a reaction is unfavorable for both enthalpy ( H > 0 ) and entropy ( S < 0 ) changes, then the reaction will be NON-SPONTANEOUS ( G > 0 ) at any temperature. If a reaction is favorable for only one of either entropy or enthalpy, the standard-state free energy equation must be used to determine whether the reaction is spontaneous or not. For non-standard-state conditions (P 0.1 MPa; concentrations 1 M), values of H and S for the actual reaction conditions must be calculated and used to determine G and Keq.
If a reaction is favorable for enthalpy ( H < 0 ), but unfavorable for entropy ( S < 0 ), then the reaction becomes LESS SPONTANEOUS as temperature increases. o WHY? - The standard-state free energy equation states that:
If entropy is unfavorable, the S is negative. Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding the respective positive number. As the temperature increases, the T S factor (which is ADDED to the enthalpy if the entropy is unfavorable) increases as well. Eventually, the T S factor becomes larger than H and G becomes positive, i.e. the reaction is no longer spontaneous.

Free energy of reaction (G) In chemical reactions involving the changes in thermodynamic quantities we often use another variation of this equation:

S0 > 0
If H0 > 0 and entropy S0 < 0 then the reaction will be NONSPONTANEOUS (G0 > 0 ) at any temperature. Standard-state free energy of reaction (
