What would be the effect on an enclosed volume of gas if we were to simultaneously double the pressure and double the Kelvin (Absolute)temperature of the enclosed gas?
A)The gas volume would double.
B)The gas volume would be cut in half.
C)The gas volume would remain the same.
D)The gas density would double and the gas would liquify.
E)It's not possible to simultaneously double the pressure and temperature.

According to the Ideal Gas Law (PV=nRT), when we double the pressure and temperature simultaneously, the volume (V) would remain the same as long as the number of moles of gas (n) and gas constant (R) remain constant. This means that the gas density would also remain constant. The gas would only liquify if the temperature and pressure reach the point where the gas's critical temperature and pressure are exceeded.
