AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) LPG, which stands for Liquefied Petroleum Gas. LPG is the general name given to propane, butane, and mixtures of the two. These gases are liquefied under pressure and are commonly used as fuel for heating, cooking, and transportation. The term LPG is the industry standard and is recognized in regulations and standards related to the storage, handling, and use of these flammable gases. The other options are incorrect - LEG is not a recognized term, LNG stands for Liquefied Natural Gas, and NGL stands for Natural Gas Liquids, which is a broader category that includes LPG.
