To solve the question we will assume that the gas behaves like an ideal gas, that is to say, that there is no interaction between the molecules. Assuming ideal gas we can apply the following equation:

Where,
P is the pressure of the gas
V is the volume of the gas
n is the number of moles
R is a constant
T is the temperature
Now, we have two states, an initial state, and a final state. The conditions for each state will be.
Initial state (1)
P1=975Torr=1.28atm
V1=3.8L
T1=-18°C=255.15K
Final state(2), STP conditions
P2=1atm
T2=273.15K
V2=?
We will assume that the number of moles remains constant, so the nR term of the first equation will be constant. For each state, we will have:

Since nR is the same for both states, we can equate the equations and solve for V2:

We replace the known values:

At STP conditions the gas would occupy 5.2L. First option
Answer:
D) atomic radii increase from top to bottom of a group
Explanation:
Atomic radii trend along group:
As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.
As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.
Other options are incorrect because,
A) atomic radii increase from left to right across the period
Correct = atomic radii decreases from left to right across the period
B) ionization energy increases from top to bottom within a family
Correct = ionization energy decreases from top to bottom within a family
C) electronegativity decreases from left to right across a period
Correct = electronegativity increases from left to right across a period
Answer: The lower temperature reduces molecule speeds, reducing the number of effective collisions.
