Question 1476 Deck General
70% to passLNG is carried at approximately what temperature?
A
-160 degrees F
B
-160 degrees R
C
-160 degrees K
D
-160 degrees C
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) -160 degrees C. Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is typically carried at a temperature of around -160 degrees Celsius (°C) in order to maintain its liquid state. This temperature is necessary to liquefy the natural gas, which reduces its volume and makes it more convenient for storage and transportation. The other options are incorrect because -160 degrees Fahrenheit (°F), Rankine (°R), or Kelvin (°K) are not the standard temperatures used for LNG transportation. Celsius is the standard temperature scale used in this context.
