A 40°F (4.4°C)
B 80°F (26.7°C)
C 110°F (43.3°C)
D 150°F (65.6°C)
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) 80°F (26.7°C). According to the US Coast Guard regulations, a flammable liquid is defined as any liquid that gives off flammable vapors at or below a temperature of 80°F (26.7°C). This is the standard used to determine if a liquid is considered flammable for safety purposes. The other options, such as 40°F, 110°F, and 150°F, do not align with the regulatory definition of a flammable liquid.
