🔍 Key Concepts

• Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) properties: how gases are turned into liquids for transport • Relationship between boiling point, temperature, and pressure for cryogenic liquids • Difference between liquid phase vs. vapor phase during marine carriage

💭 Think About

• Think about how we reduce the volume of natural gas to make it economical to ship by sea—what must we do to its temperature and/or pressure? • When LNG is inside a properly designed cargo tank during normal carriage, is it mainly a liquid or a gas? What condition keeps it in that state? • Which of the answer choices describes a condition that is typical and continuous during transport, rather than a special point (like a maximum limit or a rare state)?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options describe normal, steady transport conditions vs. special thermodynamic limits (like critical temperature). • Recall that LNG is a cryogenic liquid—double‑check what that implies about its temperature relative to its boiling point at the carriage pressure. • Eliminate any choice that would mean the cargo is mostly vapor instead of liquid, since that would defeat the purpose of liquefying it for transport.
