My geometric intuition breaks down horribly regarding advanced concepts in thermodynamics, such as the use of thermodynamic potentials. My question here is therefore about the latter concepts (in particular, re: defining the chemical potential for an ideal gas)

 

 

 

What I understand

What allows me to understand the first part of a standard thermodynamics syllabus is the understanding that (quasi-static/reversible) thermodynamics takes place on a manifold M of equilibrium states. For the ideal gas, this manifold has global coordinates (
