Solution

The correct options are
A decrease in Gibbs energy
C increase in enthalpy
D increase in entropy
The process of evaporation of a liquid is accompanied by:
(A) increase in enthalpy as heat energy is absorbed.
(B) decrease in Gibbs energy as the process is spontaneous.
(D) increase in entropy as vapours have more randomness than liquid.

In an irreversible process taking place at constant T and P and in which only pressure-volume work is being done, the change in Gibbs free energy (dG) and change in entropy (dS), satisfy the criteria

For a spontaneous process, the change in Gibbs function is equal to the:

Decrease in Gibbs function is the measure of the useful work done by the system.
