The correct answer is: $\frac{3}{2} \rho_0$
$$
\begin{aligned}
& \text { } \rho=\frac{P M}{R T} \text { or } \rho \propto \frac{P}{T} \\
& \left(\frac{P}{T}\right)_A=\frac{P_0}{T_0} \text { and }\left(\frac{P}{T}\right)_B=\frac{3}{2}\left(\frac{P_0}{T_0}\right) \\
& \left(\frac{P}{T}\right)_B=\frac{3}{2}\left(\frac{P}{T}\right)_A \\
& \therefore \quad \rho_B=\frac{3}{2} \rho_A=\frac{3}{2} \rho_0
\end{aligned}
