By charles law.

At constant pressure volume is directly proportional to temperature.

PV=RT
P=constant.

Therefore, when gas is cooled so temperature decreases so eventually volume will also decrease since direct relationship exists.

Yes @Manoj. But when gas is heated at constant pressure. Right answer is D because here is "cooled" word.

Kavi said:   9 years ago
But cooling is also temperature reduction process, law is not only for the increase in temperature @Mubashir.

Based on Charles's law.
P=Constant.
V/T.

When gas get cooled it starts expanding hence volume increases.

Aish. said:   6 years ago
Yes, I agree @Karthick Ravi.

Amit said:   6 years ago
Yes, @karthick, but here the condition is given of isobaric cooling so D option is correct.
