the thermometer that works on constant pressure
"Constant pressure" means the pressure must not change.
pressure
The temperature and pressure.
constant pressure
The volume is constant. The pressure will increase.The volume is constant. The pressure will increase.

One is for constant pressure, the other is for constant volume. These are not the same; for example, if the pressure is maintained constant, and the gas is heated, the volume changes.
The product of pressure and volume. Does PV = nRT look familiar? (:
At constant temperature p.V=constant, so pressure INcreases when decreasing the volume.
Increasing the temperature of a gas will increase it's pressure ONLY if the volume is held constant.
As pressure increases, if temperature is constant, the gas will decrease in volume.
In Charles' Law, the mass is held constant which means that the pressure on the gas is constant.
The atmospheric pressure has no effect on the speed of sound when the temperature is constant. The air pressure has no influence on the sound.
Sulfur trioxide is a compound, and at standard temperature and pressure is a gas and therefore is homogeneous.
Enthalpy H is a thermodynamic state function, that is defined for homogeneous systems as H = U + P V where U is the internal energy of the system, P the pressure and V the volume. If we perform a transformation of the system between the states 0 and 1 maintaining the pressure constant, for the first thermodynamic principle, we have U1 - U0 = Q - P (V1 - V0) where Q is the heat the system absorbs during the transformation. From the definition of enthalpy we also have H1 - H0 = U1 - U0 + P (V1 - V0) Putting together the last two equations we get that, if pressure is maintained constant, H1 - H0 = Q that is the variation of enthalpy is equal too the heat absorbed during the transformation. Naturally this is not true if the pressure is not constant, but the case of constant pressure is particularly important since almost all chemical equations happen at constant pressure.
