The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Two systems at the same temperature are said to be in?", we need to analyze the concepts of thermodynamics, particularly focusing on the conditions under which two systems can be considered to be in equilibrium. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the condition when two systems are at the same temperature. 2. **Identifying the Term**: In thermodynamics, when two systems are at the same temperature, they are said to be in a specific state of equilibrium. 3. **Defining Thermal Equilibrium**: The correct term for two systems at the same temperature is "thermal equilibrium." This means that there is no net flow of thermal energy between the two systems. 4. **Reasoning**: When two systems are in thermal equilibrium, they can exchange heat without any change in temperature. This implies that the systems have reached a state where their thermal energies are balanced. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the answer to the question is that two systems at the same temperature are said to be in "thermal equilibrium." ### Final Answer: Two systems at the same temperature are said to be in **thermal equilibrium**.

Assertion : Heat added to a system at lower temperature causes greater randomness than when the same quantity of heat is added to it at higher temperature. Reason : Entropy is a measure of the degree of randomness or disorder in the system.

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.
