Solution

The correct option is D zero
The required phase convertion is :
1mole of water at 1000C and 1 atm Steam at 1000C at 1 atm

We know that phase conversions always occur at constant pressure ad temperature and the reaction is at equilibrium.
So the process at equilibrium the value of G is zero.
