Giving examples is something good because it helps people grasping what you are talking about.

Below are examples of Wikipedia articles where examples are useful.

Isochoric process

[edit]

Without example:

An isochoric process, also called an isometric process or an isovolumetric process, is a process in which the amount of energy of something changes, without a change in its volume. Iso means "equal" in Greek, and that's the name of the process precisely because the volume remains equal from start to finish.

If an ideal gas is used in an isochoric process, and the quantity of gas stays constant, then this increase in energy is proportional to an increase in temperature and pressure.

Example:

It's what happens if you heat a gas inside a rigid, closed box: the pressure and temperature of the gas will increase, but, since it's inside a rigid box, the volume will still be the same.
