                    Which of the following pairs of a chemical reaction is certain to result in a spontaneous reaction?

    A)                                                                                                                                                                            Exothermic and decreasing disorder      

    B)                 Endothermic and increasing disorder

    C)                 Exothermic and increasing disorder

    D)                 Endothermic and decreasing disorder

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    If reaction is exothermic, therefore, \[\Delta H\] is -ve and on increasing disorder, \[\Delta S\] is +ve thus, at these condition, \[\Delta G\] is negative according to following equation.                 \[\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S\]                 \[\Delta G=-ve\]. Hence, for spontaneous reaction \[\Delta G\] must be \[-ve\].
