Hello All,
Suppose i have two identical boxes having sufficient oxygen ( these boxes contains same amount of coal, but one in one box coal is raw while in the other coal is burning ) when i use thermometer, the thermometers reads different readings one is high other is low. Let us suppose that i didn't know what was in the two boxes , what conclusion should i draw by seeing their temperature to be different? how do the two systems different on microscopic level. I mean what has happened two the hotter system that could explain its temperature being higher, note that both the system has same internal energy.
