A is a set with n elements, So, any subset of A can have length between 0 to n.
Claim: C can't have two subsets of A which has same cardinality.
Proof: Lets say S1 and S2 are two subsets of A and cardinality of S1 and S2 are same (|S1|=|S2|).
Now since cardinality of S1 and S2 are same, neither S1 is proper subset of S2 , nor S2 is proper subset of S1(S1⊂S2 not possible, also S2⊂S1 not possible). Hence S1 and S2 both can't be there at C(C may have S1 or S2 ----> one of them , but not both).
Hence C can have only one subset of A with cardinality x(where 0<=x<=n, because any subset of A can have length between 0 to n). For example if A={1,2,3} then different subsets of A with cardinality 2 are {1,2} , {1,3} ,{2,3}. Now C can have at most one of them as it's element.
So, at max C can have n+1 elements.
For example if A={1,2,.......n}, then C can be something like this (Note: Cmax (C with maximum cardinality) is not unique)
C={{1,2,.......n-1,n}, {1,2,.......,n-2,n-1} , {1,2,.......n-3,n-2}........................{1,2},{1} ,{}}
