At thermodynamic equilibrium the dynamic processes for changes in a system have reached a steady state (not changing with time) where temperature has stabilized to a constant, no heat is being exchanged, no work is occurring, composition is constant (reactants are being converted to products at the same rate that the products are converting back to the reactants), pressure is constant, if there is more than one phase, movement between the phases is balanced (for example evaporation and condensation are occurring at the same rate), and there are no concentration gradients.

What is thermodynamic equilibrium in physics?
Thermodynamic equilibrium is when the inputs and outputs of a system is equal. This may be in terms of heat energy or in terms of liquid/gas flow.
What is special about the entropy in thermodynamic equilibrium compared to all statesof a system?
In thermal equilibrium, and only in thermal equilibrium, entropy is constant.
What is cell specialisation?
The quasi-balanced state of a thermodynamic system near to thermodynamic equilibrium, in some sense. In a quasistatic or equilibrium process, a sufficiently slow transition of a thermodynamic system from one equilibrium state to another occurs such that at every moment in time the state of the system is close to an equilibrium state. During a quasistatic process, the system reaches equilibrium much faster, almost instantaneously, than its physical parameters vary.
Is heat a thermodynamic function?
what is heat a thermodynamic function
What are two factors same for the density of a pure substance to stay constant?
Density is an intrinsic property of each type of material, defined as the total mass divided by the total volume. Obviously, two samples of the material which have the same mass and same volume will have the same density, but that is not that answer to this question. This question is about the thermodynamic state of a material and the answer is temperature and pressure. The thermodynamic state of a system is a set of properties that are reproducible when the thermodynamic variables have been specified. Density is one such property. Specifying the temperature, pressure and specifying the quantity and type of material of a system determines density at equilibrium. The equilibrium condition is critically important in that assertion. It is a fundamental premise of thermodynamics that the state of a simple system at equilibrium can be completely characterized by specifying two independent property variables, such as temperature and pressure, and the quantities of the chemical constituents. Any system then with the same thermodynamic state has the same intrinsic properties such as density, heat capacity, thermal conductivity, viscosity, and other characteristics.

What are the conditions for availability in a thermodynamic system?
You can search the relevant meaning of the availability condition for thermodynamic system in the wikipedia since there's so much to learn and laws of thermodynamic equilibrium that explains what and those condition works.
What term is used to describe when heat gain is equal to heat loss?
The term is "thermodynamic equilibrium."

Is the gibbs free energy equation used to measure thermodynamic functions from equilibrium measurements at different temperatures?
yes it does.
What has the author F R Gilmore written?
F. R. Gilmore has written: 'Equilibrium composition and thermodynamic properties of air to 24,000K'
Does a large equilibrium constant mean that the reaction must be rapid?
NO!!! A large Equilibrium Constant means that nearly all the reactants have been used up to reach the equilibrium. Conversely a small K(eq) indicates that equilibrium is reached when very little of the reactants have been used.
What is apparent solubility of drug?
Reference 11: Apparent solubility refers to the concentration of material at apparent equilibrium (supersaturation). Apparent solubility is distinct from true thermodynamic solubility, which is reached at injinite equilibrium time.
What is an material?
One that is in the solid state but does not have regularly ordered atomic structure, as do all elemental solids and pure compound solids at thermodynamic equilibrium.
