Apr 1, 2017 at 11:53 | comment | added | user31607 | @orthocresol I also thought it meant constant pressure but then in answers they gave work as zero which cannot happen in a constant pressure process. | |
Apr 1, 2017 at 3:38 | comment | added | Todd Minehardt | @orthocresol - Thanks for tracking that down. Guessing we can settle/close this question under the "typo" category? | |
Apr 1, 2017 at 3:13 | comment | added | orthocresol | Next time, please include the source with it, and quote it verbatim. That allows people to better judge what's going on. | |

Apr 1, 2017 at 3:07 | comment | added | orthocresol | @ToddMinehardt the 8th ed of Atkins indeed has this weird question: i.sstatic.net/enri8.png. The question has been removed in the 10th ed. It is very obviously wrong, I suspect it was meant to be constant pressure. | |

Apr 1, 2017 at 1:40 | comment | added | Todd Minehardt | Very odd. The question makes no sense as written. Constant volume is, well, constant, so you can't get twice the volume if the volume is held constant. Maybe have a look at an earlier or later edition of Atkins, see if this is an error introduced during a revision. | |

Apr 1, 2017 at 1:32 | comment | added | Todd Minehardt | The question is obviously wrong. What's your source? | |
