When H and S are both positive
when h and s are both positive
It could mean that the candle wick was composed of or covered with a substance that can undergo spontaneous combustion, or that it can catch fire at room temperature by chemical reaction. There is no supernatural possibility behind a candle lighting apparently by itself.
The temperature could increase as the reaction progressed. Higher temperatures would create a faster reaction.
Addition of a catalyst or increasing the temperature will increase the rate of a chemical reaction.
An endothermic reaction is one in which thermal energy, or heat, is absorbed. If heat is absorbed in the reaction process, it is endothermic. By monitoring the temperature of the reactants in a reaction, an observer could identify an endothermic reaction through observation of a decrease in the temperature.
when h and s are both positive
For a reaction, synonyms could include automatic, reflexive, or instinctive. For a spontaneous person : impulsive, impetuous, or extemporaneous.
Use the following equation: delta G = delta H - T*deltaS. A reaction is spontaneous if delta G is negative. A reaction will always be spontaneous (under any temperature) only if the change in enthalpy (delta H) is negative and the change in entropy (delta S) is positive. If this is not the case, the reaction will only be spontaneous (negative delta G) for a range of temperatures (or could be always non-spontaneous)
A spontaneous reaction to a bankrupt, inept and unresponsive government that could not provide bread or hope.

Yes.
The reaction happens by itself.
The temperature could increase as the reaction progressed. Higher temperatures would create a faster reaction.
