19. A sample of an ideal gas is in a tank of constant volume. The sample absorbs heat energy so that its temperature changes from 300 K to 600 K . If `vlv_{l}` is the average speed of the gas molecules before the absorption of heat and `v2v_{2}` is their average speed after the absorption of heat, what is the ratio `v2/v1v_{2} / v_{1}` ? (A) 4 (B) 2 (C) `2\sqrt{2}` (D) `1/21 / 2`
