Answer:
The correct option is: ΔSsurr is greater than 0 and its magnitude is greater than ΔSsys.
Explanation:
For a <u>chemical reaction to be spontaneous, the change in the</u> <u>Gibbs free energy should be negative (ΔG = -ve).</u>
At constant temperature (T) and pressure, the Gibbs free energy is given by the equation: 
Here,
is the enthalpy change and
is the entropy change of the system.
Also, <u>according to the second law of thermodynamics</u>, <u>for a spontaneous process, the total entropy</u>, 
Therefore, <u>for a reaction to be spontaneous</u>, if
is less than 0 or negative; then <u>
should be greater than 0 or positive. </u>Also,
