Solution

The correct option is A Volume of gas decreases with increase in pressure
The volume of gas decreases with an increase in pressure. This leads to the conversion of the gaseous state into a liquid state and eventually into a solid-state. The volume of the gas decreases by applying pressure on gases because gases are compressible.
