Volume of air bubble V=43πr3. We get , Vr3 If r is 2 times, V becomes 8 times at the surface of lake.Pressure at the surface of lake is givenP1=1 atmosphere, V1=8VP1=Hdg where d=density of water.  Pressure at the bottom of lake, 

P2= Pressure of atmosphere+ Pressure of water P2=Hdg+hdg=(H+h)dg

Where, h=depth of lake. Let final volume, V2=V. Because temperature is constant, hence from Boyle’s law P1V1=P2V2Hdg×8V=(H+h)dg×Vh=7H
