• This template includes {{collapsible list}}s. By default, all lists are collapsed.
  To show all lists expanded, use {{Thermodynamics |expanded=all}}
  (or, if enabled, {{Thermodynamics |all}}, i.e. without the "expanded=")
  To show one particular list expanded while the others remain collapsed,
  use: {{Thermodynamics |expanded=listname}} (or, if enabled, {{Thermodynamics |listname}} )
  where listname is one of the following:
  Branches, Laws, System, System properties, Material properties,
Equations, Potentials, History/culture, Scientists
  (omit any speech or quotemarks).
  For example, {{Thermodynamics |expanded=Material properties}}
  (or, if enabled, {{Thermodynamics |Material properties}} ).
