Answer»

The correct option is (a) ΔS(system) + ΔS(surroundings) > 0

For EXPLANATION I WOULD SAY: ΔS(universe) > 0 can also be written as ΔS(system) + ΔS(surroundings) > 0, as the universe is nothing but the system and surroundings. The above mentioned CONDITION is used when a reaction is at equilibrium.
