Answer:

Option a (100 kPa) is the appropriate option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given value is:

Original pressure,

P₁ = 50 kPa

Let the new pressure be "x".

Now,


(P1)/(T_1) =(P_2)/(T_2)

On substituting the values, we get


(50)/(T_1) =(x)/(2T_1)

On applying cross-multiplication, we get


x = 50* 2


=100 \ kPa

Thus the answer above is the right one.
