Solution

Thermodynamics:

  • Thermodynamics is a branch of science that studies the relationship between heat, work, and state transition from one form to another.
  • The laws of thermodynamics only apply when a system is in equilibrium or moves from one equilibrium state to another.
  • Macroscopic properties like temperature and pressure do not change with time for a system in the equilibrium state.
