Options
- AA-3, B-4, C-1, D-2
- BA-1, B-4, C-3, D-2
- CA-1, B-2, C-3, D-4
- DA-3, B-2, C-1, D-4
Correct answer
C. A-1, B-2, C-3, D-4
Step-by-step solution
For the freezing of water (liquid solid), heat is released ( H At 260 K (below the freezing point), freezing is spontaneous, so G At 280 K (above the freezing point), freezing is non-spontaneous, so G > 0 . This matches C with 3. For the melting of ice (solid liquid), heat is absorbed ( H > 0 ) and randomness increases ( S > 0 ). At 290 K (above the melting point), melting is spontaneous, so G At 260 K (below the melting point), melting is non-spontaneous, so G > 0 . This matches D with 4. Therefore, the correct ma
