- Internal energy (U) - due to molecular motions + intermolecular interactions
- U = molecular traslation, rotational, vibrational, and electronic energies, +relativistic rest-mass energy, $m_{rest}$ C² of electrons ad the nuclei+potential energy of interaction between the molecules
- U =$f(T,V,n_1,n_2....)$
- $\Delta$U = f(T,V,)
- ideal gass U = f(T)
- $\Delta$U =f(T)
