État d'un système dont les paramètres macroscopiques ne varient pas tant que les conditions extérieures restent inchangées. L'équilibre est dit homogène si le système est formé d'une seule phase, hétérogène si le système est constitué par plusieurs phases. Pour un corps pur, l'équilibre hétérogène est l'existence d'un mélange, en proportions quelconques, de deux ou trois phases de ce corps, à température et à pression uniformes.
