Thermodynamics
When ∆G is positive, the process is always non-spontaneous. Explain.
∆G can be positive only if;
(i) both the factors oppose i.e. ∆H is +ve and T∆S is –ve,
(ii) both the factors i.e. ∆H and T∆S have a negative sign and T∆S > ∆H,
(iii) both the factors i.e. ∆H and T∆S have a +ve sign and ∆H > T∆S.
