If two systems are separated by a diathermic wall, the macroscopic quantity which is equal for two systems is:

Important Questions on Thermodynamics
Two samples and initially kept at the same state. They are taken through different thermodynamic process to same final volume. Sample is expanded through an adiabatic process and the sample through an isothermal process. What will be their final pressures? (and are the final pressures of and respectively)


A system is neither in thermal equilibrium with nor with . The systems and :



Reason: Internal energy is a function of temperature.

Reason: Work done in the above process is
