Gibb's Helmholtz equation
Question

Essential condition for a process to be spontaneous is 

A) ΔSsys=+ve

B) ΔHsys=ve

C) ΔGsys=ve

D) ΔStotal=+ve

Moderate
Solution

Only A & B cannot decide spontaneity of a process.

 Driving force is ΔGsys.

When ΔGsysisve the process is spontaneous

ΔGsys=TΔStotal

When ΔGsys is -ve, ΔStotal is +ve
