In the case of a supercooled solution that is on the verge of crystallization, the free energy of the solution is typically less than that of the solid phase. Crystallization occurs when the free energy of the solution becomes lower than that of the supercooled state, leading to the formation of solid crystals. In the supercooled state, the solution is thermodynamically unstable, with a higher free energy compared to the solid phase. As the solution cools down further and approaches the point of crystallization, its free energy decreases until it becomes equal to or lower than that of the solid, leading to the formation of crystals. Therefore, the correct statement is: less.
