Statement 1: When an ideal gas expands isothermally into an evacuated rigid container, its temperature remains unchanged.

Statement 2: The molecules of an ideal gas have negligible size.

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Free expansion gives w=0 and, with the gas staying at its initial temperature, q=0, so Δ U=0; U of an ideal gas depends only on T, hence T is unchanged: I correct. II is a true ideal gas assumption, but the constancy of T comes from the absence of intermolecular attraction, not from molecular size. Answer (b).
