Answer:

Bottle B has a higher temperature than Bottle A.

Explanation:

We have to consider something very important here and that is the ability of the molecules of CO2 and those of air to trap heat.

CO2 molecules are better able to trap heat since it is among the green house gases.

Since CO2 is a greenhouse gas, the temperature of bottle B is higher than that of bottle A because more heat is trapped by the gas in bottle B than the gas in bottle A.
