Solution

The correct option is C Zeroth law of thermodynamics
$A n s w e r : -$ A
The zeroth law of thermodynamics states that if two thermodynamic systems are each in thermal equilibrium with a third, then they are in thermal equilibrium with each other.
So, two bodies in contact will always attain same temperature after some time.
