AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 350 psig. According to Coast Guard regulations, the maximum pressure for portable compressed gas cylinders used on vessels is 350 psig (pounds per square inch gauge). This is the standard pressure rating for the vast majority of portable gas cylinders used on ships and boats. The other options are incorrect because: A) is too vague and non-specific. B) 2169 kPa is equivalent to around 315 psig, which is below the 350 psig limit. D) "C" is not a valid option in this multiple choice question.
