Answer:

Due to expansion.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pressure exerted by a sample of gas at constant volume doubles when the absolute temperature is doubled because with the increase of temperature, the molecules of gas start expansion which increases their volume and as a result pressure of a gas increases. Increasing temperature of a gas sample increases the kinetic energy of the particles, and as a result the gas expand.
