Explanation:

 Justification: The force acting on a unit area of a surface is called pressure.
Option A: The total pressure exerted by a liquid column at its base is proportional to the height of the column.
Option B: If the width of the container increases, a) height of liquid column will reduce, and b) area of the base will increase. So, pressure will actually reduce.
Option C: Width of the liquid column contributes to the weight, not pressure, since pressure is calculated on “per unit area”. So, the increase in width is adjusted with the increase in area.
