#"1.24 m"^3# and isochoric

Explanation:

#"(i)"#

At #"A"#
#"P"_1 = "6.2 atm"#
#"V"_1 = "0.6 m"^3#

At #"B"#
#"P"_2 = "3.0 atm"#
#"V"_2 = ?#

At constant temperature

#"PV = constant"#

#"P"_1"V"_1 = "P"_2 "V"_2#

#"V"_2 = ("P"_1"V"_1)/"P"_2 = (6.2 cancel"atm" × "0.6 m"^3)/(3.0 cancel"atm") = "1.24 m"^3#

#—————#

#"(ii)"#

Path #"BC"# represents a change in pressure from #"3.0 atm"# to #"4.2 atm"# at constant volume. Therefore it is an isochoric process.
