Hello,
I am trying to calculate the delta G of a molecule and am having trouble figuring out what values I need to use to do so at a given temperature. I run a geometry optimization followed by a frequency calculation and I get this section in the output:
From the projected analysis
The Zero-Point Energy (Kcal/mol) = 28.51472262
center of mass
--------------
x = 0.00000163 y = 0.00000203 z = 0.00000051
moments of inertia (a.u.)

Rotational Constants
--------------------
A= 5.249070 cm-1 ( 7.552071 K)
B= 5.249051 cm-1 ( 7.552045 K)
C= 5.249044 cm-1 ( 7.552035 K)
Temperature = 298.15K
frequency scaling parameter = 1.0000
Zero-Point correction to Energy = 28.493 kcal/mol ( 0.045406 au)
Thermal correction to Energy = 30.287 kcal/mol ( 0.048266 au)
Thermal correction to Enthalpy = 30.880 kcal/mol ( 0.049210 au)
Total Entropy = 49.384 cal/mol-K
- Translational = 34.246 cal/mol-K (mol. weight = 16.0313)
- Rotational = 15.068 cal/mol-K (symmetry # = 1)
- Vibrational = 0.070 cal/mol-K
Cv (constant volume heat capacity) = 6.384 cal/mol-K
- Translational = 2.979 cal/mol-K
- Rotational = 2.979 cal/mol-K
- Vibrational = 0.425 cal/mol-K
What values do I need to use in my calculation? Is the thermal correction to Enthalpy the Enthalpy or do I need to add/subtract it from something?
Thank you in advance.
