Option D: both (a) and (b)

Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a mixture of light hydrocarbons, specifically propane and butane. These gases are stored under pressure as liquids. Knowledge of these components is critical for shipboard safety, as their physical properties determine the pressure-temperature relationships required for safe containment and fuel system operation.

All Options

propane

none of the above

butane

both (a) and (b) (Correct Answer)
