[QUOTE="hilbert2, post: 5496723, member: 482973"] Do we mean the same thing with terms "isolated", "closed", and "open"? An isolated system doesn't exchange either energy or matter with its surroundings. A closed system can exchange heat but not matter. An open system can exchange both heat and matter with the rest of the universe. [/QUOTE]
