Considering entropy `(S)` as a thermodynamics parameter, the criterion for the spontaneity of any process is

A

`DeltaS_("system")+DeltaS_("surrounding")be+ve`

B

`DeltaS_("system")-DeltaS_("surroundings")be`+ve

C

`DeltaS_("system")`be zero

D

`DeltaS_("surroundings")be` zero

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

For a spontaneous process,
`DeltaS_("total")=DeltaS_(system)Delta_("surrounding")` be positive.
