    Can A will make a louder and stronger fizz than can B.

    Explanation:

    Temperature has a direct effect on gas solubility. We know that carbonated water contains carbon dioxide dissolved in water. The extent of dissolution or solubility of this gas is dependent on the temperature of the system.

    As the temperature of the system rises, the solubility of gas in solution decreases. It follows that can A, having been stored in a garage is definitely at a higher temperature than can B stored in the refrigerator.

    Since solubility of gases decreases with increasing temperature, the carbon dioxide in can A will be less soluble than in can B. This will cause can A to make a louder and stronger fizz when opened than can B.
