Question

A system is said to be in thermal equilibrium if

  1. the macroscopic  variables do not change in time
  2. the microscopic variables do not change in time

  4. the microscopic variables change in time

The correct answer is: the macroscopic  variables do not change in time


    In thermal equilibrium the macroscopic variables like pressure, volume, temperature, mass and composition do not change with time.
