JEE Main 2024Thermodynamics (C) Question with Solution

JEE Main 2024 (29 Jan Shift 1)

Question

Which of the following is not correct?

Choose an option

Show full solutionCorrect option: B
Correct answer
BΔG is positive for a spontaneous reaction

Step-by-step explanation

G can be expressed as:

G=H-TS

where G is the change in free energy

H is the change in enthalpy

T is the temperature

S is the change in entropy.

Conditions for spontaneous and non spontaneous reactions in terms of free energy change are as follows,

  ΔG>0  for non-sponateneous reaction

 ΔG<0 for spontaneous reaction.

 ΔG=0 for equilibrium reaction

(ΔG)P,T=(+)ve for non-spontaneous process

Hence option B is the answer.
