Is Exergonic Reaction Spontaneous?

Exergonic reactions are also termed "spontaneous" reactions
The equilibrium constant for an exergonic reaction is greater than 1, meaning that the concentration of products is greater than the concentration of reactants at equilibrium. Exergonic reactions can be coupled to endergonic reactions.

Are endergonic reactions spontaneous?

Endergonic reactions are non-spontaneous, meaning that energy must be added before they can proceed.

Do exergonic reactions always occur spontaneously?

An exergonic reaction is a chemical reaction where the change in the free energy is negative (there is a net release of free energy). ... Although exergonic reactions are said to occur spontaneously, this does not imply that the reaction will take place at an observable rate.
