    Thermodynamics problem, Enthelpy zero for an ideal gas

    Sorry for being a little slow. I end up with \left(\frac{\partial H}{\partial V}\right)_{T} = T\left(\frac{\partial P}{\partial T}\right)_{V} + V\left(\frac{\partial P}{\partial V}\right)_{T} and I see no way of getting rid of this. When I substitute the ideal gas formula this doesn't...

    Thermodynamics problem, Enthelpy zero for an ideal gas

    Hi Chestermiller Sorry it should be \left(\frac{\partial H}{\partial V}\right)_{T} = 0 I don't think I have learned that equation. The only other equation involving enthalpy is H = U + PV. Or I also have dH = TdS + VdP, but I don't think I can use entropy here. A point in the right...
