No, and that's exactly the reason for making it larger ... in order to be able to

carry more propane around at the same pressure as the small tank, or maybe

even somewhat less pressure.

More pressure from propane?

more than what???..........


What can handle more pressure a small closed container or a large closed container if the amount of liquid placed in it is the same?

small container


If you have one large tank and one small tank with the same amount of oxygen which has more pressure?

impossible to answer. there may be something else in the tank.


What is the psi on a 20 lb propane tank?

The pressure inside a propane tank depends on the ambient temperature of the tank and if Liquid Propane Gas (LPG) is present inside the tank. It has nothing to do with the size of the tank. A 20 lb tank that is not more than 80% full, in an 100 degree F environment, with LPG in it, will have approximately 172 PSIG, just as a 200 lb that is not more than 80% full, in an 100 degree F environment, with LPG in it, will have approximately 172 PSIG. Examples are: A tank with LPG (no more than 80% full) at 80 degree F with have 128 PSIG, 60 degree F with have 92 PSIG, 30 degree F with have 51 PSIG, and -20 degree F with have 11 PSIG. This explains the decrease in pressure as you use a large amount of propane from a tank quickly. The tank cools due to the venture effect which drops the temperature of the LPG. The drop in temperature results in a drop in pressure. When the tank warms up, as long as Liquid Propane Gas is still present the pressure will go up.

What are the benefits of using a propane generator?

The benefits of using a propane generator versus a gasoline generator is that a propane generator is more cost efficient. You will save money on propane use. Gasoline is more expensive. Propane generators are also safer for the environment.


Why is there more friction between large surfaces?

Because there is more pressure in the surfaces.


How easy is it to change the propane in a propane generator?

You can just refill the propane tank. It is more difficult to do something like change a gas generator to a propane generator.


What happens with speed when gases flow from a large pipe to a small one?

Depends on the pipe and the length but mostly the pressure stays the same but the flow will increase more speed.


Chemical constitution of the LPG?

LPG is a mixture of propane and butane. Propane is the more volatile. Propane is C3H8 and butane is C4H10


Which has more atom's ethane or methane?

definitely ethane, although propane has even more, and butane has more than propane, etc.


Is the liquid propane in a barbeque ignites upon contact with a spark a chemical or physical change?

Propane burning is a chemical change. The propane reacts with oxygen. New compounds are the result of the process.Let me add a little more information to this. Propane stored in the tank is in liquid form under pressure (actually an equilibrium of propane gas in the top of the tank, and liquid propane in the bottom). When you open the valve, the gas escapes into the hose and goes to the burners.As the gas escapes, some of the liquid propane evaporates into gas form.The change from liquid to gas is a physical change.
