Solution

The correct option is C 10 ml
Ozone is highly soluble in turpentine. Thus, the decrease in volume of 20 ml is due to the solubility of ozone. Thus 100ml of a mixture contains 20 ml of ozone.
On heating, 20 ml of ozone decomposes to form 30 ml of oxygen. The net increase in volume will be (3020)=10ml.
2O33O2

So, the correct option is A
