Increases. At constant temperature, the Volume increases when pressure decreases (in a locked chambre) and volume decreases as pressure increases

Answer:

The volume of a balloon decreases, then the air pressure within the balloon increases

Explanation:

The relation between volume and pressure of of a balloon is given by using Boyle's law. Mathematically, the Boyle's law is given by :

\(P\propto {\dfrac {1}{V}}\\\\PV=k\)

k is the constant

It shows that there is an inverse relationship between pressure and volume of a balloon. In this case, the volume of a balloon decreases, then the air pressure within the balloon increases. So, the correct option is (B) "it increases".
