Respuesta :

Answer:

D) a four-fold increase

Explanation:

According to Gay-Lussac's law, which states that the pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to the temperature at a constant volume, the pressure increases with an increase in temperature.

According to this question, at a fixed volume, a four-fold increase in the temperature of a gas will lead to a four-fold increase in the pressure as well.
