Answer And Explanation:

a) Quantity of chocolate demanded by consumers will decrease

This is because there is a minimum price which makes product more expensive. The higher the price, the less the quantity demanded

b) Quantity of chocolate supplied by producers will increase

This is because price has increased with the government's price floor. The higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied.

c) Quantity of chocolate purchased by the government will increase

This is because there is surplus supply and therefore government would need to buy more to support the price floor and buy leftover chocolates in the market
