Coordination numbers are defined for the crystalline structures that tell about the numbers of atoms bonded to the central atom. The coordination number of a diamond is 4.
<h3>What is a coordination number?</h3>
A coordination number has been defining the number of the ions, atoms, and molecules that are bonded to the central atom of the crystalline compound or a complex.
The diamond has 8 carbon atoms in its one unit and its coordination number is 4 as its lattice type is face-centered cubic that has carbons at the corners and face center of the structure. One carbon contributes 1/8 hence and the faces center contributes 1/2.
Therefore, the diamond has a coordination number of 4.

Answer
A. Its volume is decreased
Explanation
If we compress a gas (decrease) without changing its temperature, the average kinetic energy of the gas particles remains the same.
At a constant temperature, the kinetic energy of particles remains the same. If the volume is reduced at a constant temperature, then the number of particles in unit volume or area increases. If there is an increased number of particles in the unit area then it increases the frequency of collisions per unit area.
At constant temperature, the smaller the volume of the container, the larger the pressure.
