State the formation and the melting happen spontaneously

Reference no: EM13658295

Thermodynamics offers a way to interpret everyday occurrences. If you live in northern climates, one common experience is that during early winter, snow falls but then melts when it hits the ground. Both the formation and the melting happen spontaneously. Define how can thermodynamics explain both of these seemingly opposed events?
