Solution

The correct option is C 10.93
To solve this equation, we have to use the ideal gas equation, which can be written as PV=nRT where P, V, n, R and T refer to pressure, volume, number of moles of the gas, universal gas constant and temperature (in kelvin) respectively.

Putting in the values from the question,

3.V=1(0.082)400
or V=10.93 litres
