    Temperature has increased

    Ideal Gas Law:

    pressure * volume = (number of moles of gas) * (0.08206) * (temperature)

    or short-hand:

    PV = nRT

    this equation can be transformed to solve for temperature as:

    T = PV / nR

    given there is no change in pressure and the volume of the container has increased, we know the temperature increases because volume is in the numerator--a larger number on top reflects an overall greater number.
