A life raft containing 200 g of air has another 200 g of air added.

What happens to the remaining quantities
Pressure (P)
Volume (V)
Moles (n)
Gas constant (R)
Temperature (T)
(doubles / halves / stays constant)

The pressure (P) doubles because the mass of air in the life raft doubles, but the volume (V) stays constant as no additional space is added to the life raft. The number of moles (n) stays constant as no air is added or removed. The gas constant (R) and temperature (T) also stay constant as there are no changes to the system.
