As I am reading the problem, I see they gave you two pressures, one volume and they are asking for another volume. this should give you a hint that you need to use the following formula.
P1V1= P2V2
P1= 1.00 atm
V1= 0.50 ft³
P2= 3.00 atm
V2= ?
Now we plug the values
(1.00 x 0.50)= (3.00 x V2)
V2= 0.17 ft³
<u>Answer:</u> The nuclear binding energy of the given element is 
<u>Explanation:</u>
For the given element 
Number of protons = 3
Number of neutrons = (6 - 3) = 3
We are given:

M = mass of nucleus = 
![M=[(3\times 1.00728)+(3\times 1.00866)]=6.04782amu](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=M%3D%5B%283%5Ctimes%201.00728%29%2B%283%5Ctimes%201.00866%29%5D%3D6.04782amu)
Calculating mass defect of the nucleus:
![\Delta m=M-A\\\Delta m=[6.04782-6.015126)]=0.032694amu=0.032694g/mol](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CDelta%20m%3DM-A%5C%5C%5CDelta%20m%3D%5B6.04782-6.015126%29%5D%3D0.032694amu%3D0.032694g%2Fmol)
Converting this quantity into kg/mol, we use the conversion factor:
1 kg = 1000 g
So, 
To calculate the nuclear binding energy, we use Einstein equation, which is:

where,
E = Nuclear binding energy = ? J/mol
= Mass defect = 
c = Speed of light = 
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the nuclear binding energy of the given element is 
I think a is the correct answer
