Which of the following is true about a spontaneous process? it releases energy, it does not require any external action to begi, it will occur quickly, it will continue on its own once begun, it is never endothermic

Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A spontaneous reaction is defined as the process which tends to occur on its own. It does not require any external factor or force in order to start itself.

For example, when we dissolve KCl in water then potassium chloride being ionic in nature will dissolve on its own. Hence, it will be a spontaneous process.

And, a non-spontaneous reaction is defined as a process for the completion of which we have to provide certain conditions.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement it does not require any external action to begin, is true about a spontaneous process.
