Solution

The correct option is A increase
For the gaseous reaction;
2A3B
when the volume of the container is doubled, the total pressure is reduced to half.
Calculating Δng
Δng=32=1
Δng>0
For Δng>0 , when volume is increased , ngV , the reaction goes where ng increases.

It increases in the forward direction.
So, more product is formed on doubling the volume.
