pressure
B
odor
C
color
D
density
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) odor. LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) is an odorless gas by nature. To make it easier to detect leaks, a chemical odorant is added to give it a distinctive smell, typically a rotten egg or skunk-like odor. This odorant allows people to easily identify the presence of LPG, which is crucial for safety. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the purpose of adding a chemical additive to LPG.
