Solution
The correct option is C first increases and then becomes constant First, pressure will increase due to increment of amount of gas in constant volume at constant temperature. But then, saturation will be reached and water will start condensing (since temperature is constant) and then any extra vapour introduced will condensate and hence the pressure will remain constant.
