Question

The internal energy U of an ideal gas depends only on its temperature T, not on its pressure or volume.

Solution

From the fundamental equations for internal energy and enthalpy, the volume dependence of internal energy and the pressure dependence of enthalpy for ideal gases are derived. By applying property relations, it is proved that the internal energy and enthalpy of ideal gases do not depend on volume and pressure, respectively.
