Name one major advantage of transporting gas under refrigeration.

A It increases its volume.
B It has less product per volume.
C It reduces its volume.
D None of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) It reduces its volume. Transporting gas under refrigeration reduces its volume. This is because refrigeration lowers the temperature of the gas, which in turn reduces the pressure and the overall volume of the gas. Reducing the volume of the gas makes it more efficient and cost-effective to transport, as more gas can be stored in the same space. The other answer choices are incorrect. Increasing the volume (option A) or having less product per volume (option B) would not be advantages of transporting gas under refrigeration. Option D, "None of the above," is also incorrect since the correct answer is C.
