The occurrence of a reaction is impossible if

A

`Delta H" is + ve, "Delta S` is also +ve

B

`Delta H" is - ve, "Delta S` is also -ve

C

`Delta H" is -ve, "Delta S` is +ve

D

`Delta H" is +ve, "Delta S` is -ve

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Positive `Delta H and - Delta S` both oppose the reaction.
