    Two system in thermal equilibrium with a third system separately are in thermal equilibrium with each other. The above statement is

    "Two systems in thermal equilibirum with a third system separately are in thermal equilibrium with each other". The aove statement is

    Assertion(A) : Two systems which are both in thermal equilibrium with the third system are in thermal equilibrium with one another. Reason(R ) : The heat flows spontaneously from a system at high temperature to a system at low temperature.

    Assertion: Two systems, which are in thermal equilibrium with a third system, are in thermal equilibrium with each other. Reason: The heat flows spontaneously from a system at a higher temp. to a system at a lower temp.

    Assertion: The zeroth law said that , when two systems A and B, are in thermal equilibrium, there must be a physical quantitiy that has the same value for both. Reason : The physical quantity which is same for both system is temperature.
