Doubling both the pressure and volume of an ideal gas implies that the final state has four times the initial energy (since PV = nRT, and both P and V are doubled, the left side of the equation becomes 4PV). To achieve this, the temperature must also be quadrupled, as temperature is directly proportional to the energy of the gas.
