The only way we can have a transfer of energy (any type of energy) is through heat or work. ΔE = q + w. For an ideal gas, TPR says (TPR Gen. Chem. pg. 215) that Eint is proportional to temperature (which makes sense, because as EK Chem pg. 71 & 85 show, the only part of internal energy that can change for the monatomic particles of an ideal gas is the translational energy. So any change in internal energy means a change in temperature). But then on TPR pg. 219, it says that if ΔT = 0, then ΔΕ= 0 (and so q = -w). How can we say that all of ΔE = 0? Shouldn't we say that only ΔEint = 0? With ideal gases, is ΔE = ΔΕint?
