Answer:
The correct option is A. i.e ΔH>TδS.
Explanation:
- A spontaneous process can be defined as the process that happens without the need for external energy input.
- For example, water will flow downhill, ice will melt into water, radioisotopes will decay, and iron will rust.
Condition for a process to be called spontaneous encompasses:
- A negative value for ∆G, (∆G < 0).
- A positive value for ∆S, (∆S > 0).
We know,
∆G = ∆H – T∆S
Here,
∆G = change in free energy
∆H = change in enthalpy
T = temperature in Kelvin
∆S= change in entropy
Here, we have given that both ∆H and are T∆S negative, So for the spontaneous process, ∆H should be greater than that of T∆S by which the value of ∆G will be negative hence, making it a spontaneous process.
