Jun 6, 2021 at 0:06 comment added Buzz Yes. An ideal gas is noninteracting, except for instantaneous collisions, so there is no intermolecular potential.
Jun 6, 2021 at 0:03 comment added silverbackgorilla So the model that this formula is based on assumes the molecules don't interact with one another (and hence potential energy doesn't need to be considered)?
