An open-ended mercury manometer is used to measure the pressure exerted by a trapped gas as shown in the figure. Initially, manometer shows no difference in mercury level in both columns as shown in the diagram. After sparking dissociates according to the following reaction
If pressure of Gas decreases to
(Assume temperature to be constant and is )

(Assume temperature to be constant and is )

Total pressure increased to
