question 6

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is true regarding a spontaneous reaction?

• A)\(\Delta\)H must always be negative
• B)the sign of \(\Delta\)S does not matter since the entropy value is relatively small
• C)if both \(\Delta\)H and \(\Delta\)S are positive, T\(\Delta\)S must be larger than \(\Delta\)H
• D)if both \(\Delta\)H and \(\Delta\)S are negative, the reaction will only proceed at high temperature
• E)the only scenario that always produces a spontaneous reaction, regardless of temperature, is when \(\Delta\)H is positive and \(\Delta\)S is negative
