Solution
The correct options are A There occurs a decrease in pressure B There is no change in K.E. of the molecules of gas Since temperature is kept constant so pressure decrease causes the volume to increase. K.E. remains unchanged (K.E.∝T) Number of gas molecules remains constant during expansion.
