If you would’ve attached a picture I’m sure it would’ve been a lot easier.
Answer: Option (E) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A spontaneous reaction is defined as the process which tends to occur on its own. And, a non-spontaneous reaction is defined as a process for the completion of which we have to provide certain conditions.
For example, ice melting at
is spontaneous primarily due to the increase in molecular disorder (dispersal of matter). Also, melting of ice is taking place on its own without any external force.
It is not necessary that all exothermic reactions will be exothermic in nature.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement all exothermic reactions are spontaneous, is false.
A condensation reaction is described to be a reaction wherein two molecules form an even larger product and consequently produces a smaller molecule as a by-product. For example, when two amino acids are combined, a dipeptide bond is formed. As a result, 1 molecule of water is produced as a by-product.
