Although the dissolution of ammonium chloride in water is an endothermic reaction, even then it is spontaneous because

A

`Delta H` is positive , `Delta S` is -ve

B

`Delta H` is + ve, `Delta S` is zero

C

`Delta H` is positive, `T Delta S lt Delta H`

D

`Delta H` is +ve, `Delta S` is positive and `Delta H lt T Delta S`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Even if `Delta H gt 0`, if `Delta S gt 0 and Delta H - T Delta S lt 0` then spontaneous.
