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.

A

If both the assertion and reason are true statement and reason is correct explanation of the assertion .

B

If both the assertion and reason are true statement but reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion .

C

If the assertion is true but the reason is a false statement.

D

If both assertion and reason are false statements.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Two systems are in thermal equilibrium with a third system implies that all are at the same , temperature. Hence , they will also be in thermal equilibrium.
