The reaction is spontaneous when TΔS is greater than zero (TΔS>0).

Spontaneous reaction

A spontaneous reaction is determined by applying Gib's free energy formula as follows;

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

A reaction is spontaneous when Gib's free energy is negative.

For the given example, the change in enthalpy is negative (-286 kJ), to obtain a negative Gib's free energy, the entropy must be positive.

Thus, the reaction is spontaneous when TΔS is greater than zero (TΔS>0).
