Solution
The correct option is B 1000 ml The volume of any gas is equal to the volume of the container in which it is present. This is because gases try to occupy the maximum space that is available. So, when a gas of 500 ml is transported into a container of 1000 ml, it occupies the entire space that is available i.e., 1000 ml.
