The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It provides an independent definition of temperature without reference to entropy, which is defined in the second law.
- The law was established by Ralph H. Fowler in the 1930s, long after the first, second, and third laws had been widely recognized.
- The zeroth law states that if two thermodynamic systems are both in thermal equilibrium with a third system, then the two systems are in thermal equilibrium with each other.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Zeroth law of thermodynamics article was read about 55,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 39: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
