The wall between two thermal systems that allows the flow of heat from one to another to bring thermal equilibrium is called
Answer: C
It is called a diathermic wall.
In the zeroth law of thermodynamics, a diathermic wall is a conducting wall that lets heat pass between two systems, so that they come to the same temperature, thermal equilibrium.
An adiabatic wall is the opposite: an ideal insulator that allows no heat flow, so 'insulated wall' and 'non-conducting wall' describe the adiabatic case too. 'Semiconducting wall' is not a thermodynamic term.
