Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A closed system is to be explained with an example.

Concept introduction:

The primary criteria of the study of thermochemistry is to measure the amount of heat exchanged between a system and its surroundings. Therefore, in thermodynamics, it is essential to define a system and its surroundings. This definition forms the basis for many types of descriptions and calculations in thermodynamics.
