    According to Ideal Gas Equation, Volume is related to Pressure and Temperature as follow,

    P V = n R T

    Or,

    V = n R T / P

    This relation shows that Volume is directly related to Temperature and Inversely related to pressure. So,

    A. Chilling a can of soda: As temperature is decreased so the volume will also decrease.

    B. Heating a hot-air balloon: As temperature is increased, so Volume will also increase.

    C. Squeezing a balloon: As pressure is applied, so volume will decrease.

    D. Pressurizing an air tank: Again pressure is applied so volume will decrease.
