For an ideal gas specifically, internal energy is fixed by one variable alone. That variable is the:
AColour of it
BContainer
CCost of it
DTemperature
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Temperature
1. Pressure and volume can both change without affecting it.
2. Only one property governs the molecular energies.
3. It is the temperature.
