    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    Advantages of multi-stage compressor over single stage compressor. -The fluid can be compressed to very high pressure. - The intercooler is more efficient than the cylinder wall cooling in a single stage compressor. -Pressure ratio per each stage is lowered and it reduces the leakage loss.
