Q. Statement 1: Enthalpy of graphite is lower than that of diamond
Statement 2: Entropy of graphite is lower than that of diamond

Thermodynamics

Solution:

Graphite is most stable state of carbon, hence its energy is lower than that of diamond and entropy of graphite is also lower than that of diamond
