Solution

The correct option is C will increase by 1313 of its volume at 40oC
Let Vi and Vf represents initial and final volumes respectively.
Ti and Tf will represent initial and final temperatures respectively.
Ti=40oC=40+273=313K
T2=41oC=41+273=314K
The ideal gas equation is PV=nRT
Since, the pressure and the number of moles of gas are constant, ViTi=VfTf
Substitute values in the above expression.

Vi313K=Vf314K

Hence, Vf=314K313K×Vi=1+1313×Vi

Thus, the volume of the gas will increase by 1313 of its volume at 40oC
