NEET Solved Paper 2016 Question 19

Question: The correct thermodynamic conditions for the spontaneous reaction at all temperatures is

Options:

A) $ \Delta H<0 $ and $ \Delta S=0 $

B) $ \Delta H>0 $ and $ \Delta S<0 $

C) $ \Delta H<0 $ and $ \Delta S>0 $

D) $ \Delta H<0 $ and $ \Delta S<0 $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

  • $ \Delta G=\Delta H-T.\Delta S $ For, $ \Delta H<0 $ and $ \Delta S>0,\Delta G=-ve $ (always)
    $ \therefore $ spontaneous at all temperatures.
