My right airpod won't do automatic ear detection or double-tap for Siri by itself. It's fully charged. I can hear out of it however, once I put the left airpod in my ear. The left one is working properly.
iPhone 8
Greetings, michelleNKY.
I see that you're having an issue with one side of your AirPods. It seems the right AirPod doesn't detect when it's in your ear and doesn't respond to a double-tap. I'm happy to help.
Try verifying your settings for the behavior of your AirPods. Turn Automatic Ear detection off and back on again. You can also verify if Siri is set as default for your right AirPod. The following article will help:

If after pairing them you experience the same behavior with your AirPods, contact Apple Support.
Take care!
