Thermodynamic stability refers to the state of a system where it is in its lowest energy configuration and is resistant to spontaneous changes unless external conditions are altered. It is a fundamental concept in thermodynamics that determines the feasibility and direction of chemical reactions and phase transitions.

External conditions refer to the environmental, social, and economic factors that influence an individual's or organization's decision-making and performance. Understanding these conditions is crucial for adapting strategies and achieving desired outcomes in a dynamic and interconnected world.

Phase transitions are transformations between different states of matter, such as solid, liquid, and gas, characterized by abrupt changes in physical properties. These transitions occur at specific conditions of temperature and pressure, and are often associated with critical phenomena and symmetry breaking.
