Solution

The correct option is B

Volume changes but surface area is constant


Lets take the smaller cut part and name the vertices.

Faces ABCD , BEHD and ABFE which are part of the bigger cube are removed and due to this, new faces EFGH , AFGC and CGHD are formed due to which surface area remains constant.
