Is the tank in danger of exploding if it's maximum volume is 5.0 dm3?

Oxygen gas is added to a rebreather at the same rate as it would be in the open air. The volume is 4.8 dm3 and the temperature is 25 °C. The pressure is1 atm. Once the tank is lowered under the water the pressure increases to 2 atm and the temperature drops to 12 °C. Is the tank in danger of exploding if it's maximum volume is 5.0 dm3?
