Solution

The correct option is B thermal equilibrium
Heat always flows from a hotter body to a colder body, i.e. a body of higher temperature to a body of lower temperature. Heat can flow between the bodies as long as there is a difference in temperature between them. Once the temperature of the bodies becomes the same, no more heat can flow between them. Then, the bodies are said to be in thermal equilibrium.
