-x2206-H and -x2206-S are negative-xA0- The given reaction represents the formation of chlorine molecule from chlorine atoms-xA0- Here- bond formation is taking place- Therefore- energy is being released- Hence- -x2206-H is negative-xA0- Also- two moles of atoms have more randomness than one mole of a molecule- Since spontaneity is decreased- -x2206-S is negative for the given reaction-
