Solution

The correct option is A I only
If dissolution of ammonium nitrate in water decrese the temperature of water, that means, heat is absorbed by the system and the process is endothermic. and on increasing the temperature of water, the solubility of ammonium nitrate will decrease because thr equilibrium will shift in backward direction. and negative value of S0 shows the non-spontanity of the reaction.
