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

Explanation:

The solubility of a gas in a liquid decreases as the temperature increases, so the warmer can will have more undissolved carbon dioxide.

The warmer can will be under greater pressure, so it will make a louder and stronger fizz.
