Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In an isothermal process, there is no change in the internal energy of an ideal gas. The internal energy is a function of temperature only, and since the temperature is constant, the internal energy remains unchanged. Therefore, the answer is zero.

During an Isothermal Process, 5
