Answer:

NO

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area = 2lw+ 2 lh + 2 hw  Where h = height, w= width and l = length

We will double w

SA becomes 2l(2w) + 2lh + 2h(2w)

 SA = 4lw + 2lh + 4lw

Doubling the SA

2SA = 2(2lw+ 2 lh + 2 hw)

        = 4lw + 4lh +4 hw

2SA =? SA for 2w

4lw + 4lh +4 hw =   4lw + 2lh + 4lw

This is not the same

Doubling one dimension does not double the surface area
