Two objects at the same temperature one bigger than another are placed in contact. Will heat be transferred from one object to another? Explain.

When two objects at the same temperature and of different sizes are placed in contact, there will not be any heat transfer from one object to another due to thermal equilibrium. Normally heat gets transferred from a body having a higher temperature to a body having lower temperature until they are at the same temperature.
