\(\Delta {G^\Theta }\) calculations predict that a reaction is always spontaneous for which of the following combinations of \(\Delta {H^\Theta }\) and \(\Delta {S^\Theta }\)?

A.     \( + \Delta {H^\Theta }\) and \( + \Delta {S^\Theta }\)

B.     \( + \Delta {H^\Theta }\) and \( - \Delta {S^\Theta }\)

C.     \( - \Delta {H^\Theta }\) and \( - \Delta {S^\Theta }\)

D.     \( - \Delta {H^\Theta }\) and \( + \Delta {S^\Theta }\)

D

There were eight G2 comments on this question. Most stated that a table would have been better for the presentation of the four possible combinations which is a reasonable suggestion.
