• A) The partial pressure of A will decrease and the partial pressure of B will decrease.
• B) The partial pressure of A will decrease and the partial pressure of B will increase.
• C) The partial pressure of A will increase and the partial pressure of B will decrease.
• D) The partial pressure of A will increase and the partial pressure of B will increase.
• E) The partial pressures of both A and B will remain unchanged.
