No - since sound (hearing) operates on a logarithmic scale. So to be twice as loud a sound must be 10 times as "intense".

What is Distinguish between intensity and loudness?
the Decibel it measures the loudness and intensity
Pitch is to frequency as loudness is to?
Loudness depends on the amplitude. square of amplitude is proportional to the loudness. Pitch is decided by the frequency. One can sing at higher pitch but at lower voice.
What is the relation between amplitude and loudness?
Sound is a mechanical wave. This means it needs a material medium to travel through. The loudness ie the intensity of sound is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude. As the sound wave passes through, due to elasticity of the medium the energy will be lost and so the amplitude gets decreased. So at far distance the sound intensity will be very feeble.
Is the loudness of a sound is called its intensity?
Yes the loudness of a sound is called its intensity.
The loudness of a sound wave is determined by its?
By its amplitude. Really loudness is sound intensity & intensity depends on square of amplitude ie. higher the amplitude higher the intensity which means higher the loudness.
How does amplitude affect sound?
Amplitude decides the intensity (loudness) of the sound. Intensity is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of vibration.
How is amplitued related to loudness?
(amplitude)2 is directly proportional to loudness.

What is the relaationship between loudness and sound intensity?
Loudness is the colloquial term and intensity is the scientific term. More the intensity higher the loudness. Same way in case of light, higher the intensity of radiation, we call colloquially that as more brightness.
WHAT IS The loudness of sound called?
Intensity
What is the loudness or the softness of sound?
intensity :)
The loudness or strength of a sound is its?
intensity. :)
The loudness of a sound is a reflection of?
intensity
