Answer:

The pressure will be doubled.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The volume of the container remains the same.

The temperature of the gas of is doubled.

As per Gay-Lussac's law, the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to absolute temperature of the gas given the volume remains unchanged.

Here, also the volume is fixed. So, as the temperature is doubled, the pressure of the gas in the container, being directly proportional to the change in temperature, also gets doubled.
