Considering entropy `(S)` as a thermodynamics parameter, the criterion for the spontaneity of any process isA. `DeltaS_("system") + DeltaS_("surrounding") gt 0 `B. `DeltaS_("system") - DeltaS_("surrounding") gt0`C. `DeltaS_("system") gt 0`D. `DeltaS_("surrounding") gt 0` |

Answer» Correct Answer - A For spontaneous process, `DeltaS` must be positive . In reversible process `DeltaS_("system") + DeltaS_("surrounding")=0` Hence, system is present in equilibrium . (i.e., it is not spontaeous process) While in irreversible process `DeltaS_("system") + DeltaS_("surrounding") gt 0` Hence, in the process `DeltaS` is positive. |
