Systems
Systems are what we talk about in petrology.
A system is a small piece of the universe that we are
experimenting with, thinking about, or calculating the
characteristics of. Systems have either physical or
conceptual boundaries.
There are three kinds of systems:
Isolated system: no matter or energy may cross the system
boundary; energy content and chemical composition are
fixed.
Closed system: energy can cross the system boundary but
matter cannot; the system chemical composition is fixed.
Open system: matter and energy can both cross the system
boundary.Most systems that we will be talking about are
closed systems (#2).
