Solution

The correct option is A U
A sample of ideal gas has an internal energy U and is then compressed to one-half of its original volume while the temperature stays the same. The new internal energy of the ideal gas in terms of U is U.
Note: In an isothermal process, the temperature is constant. Due to this, the internal energy of the system is constant. So the change in the internal energy is zero. ΔU.
