(thermodynamics) A quantity which is either an attribute of an entire system or is a function of position which is continuous and does not vary rapidly over microscopic distances, except possibly for abrupt changes at boundaries between phases of the system; examples are temperature, pressure, volume, concentration, surface tension, and viscosity. Also known as macroscopic property.
