Answer:

The bottle will increase in both temperature and pressure which will cause the bottle to crack/shatter! Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of Gay-Lussac states that as temperature increases so will pressure.

Answer:

it will explode (not intensely) there is some oxygen in the bottle so the cap would pop off violently, the longer it stays in the fire the more energy is being pent up.
