    Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

    Explanation:

    When the volume of a container is decreased and same number of gas molecules are present inside the container at the same temperature then it means that more number of gas molecules are spread per unit volume.

    As earlier when the volume of container was more then the molecules were widely spread inside the container but on decreasing the volume of container, molecules come closer to each other and hence there will be increase in molecules per unit volume.
