To what temperature must propane be cooled to remain a liquid at standard sea level?

As its temperature descends, propane turns to liquid at -42°C.
Then it remains liquid until you hit -187.7°C, where it freezes
and you have a solid block of propane.

Is liquid petroleum gas a gas or a liquid?
Under normal temperature and atmospheric pressure conditions propane is gaseous. However, when the temperature is reduced to below −42.09 °C or when it is stored under high pressure (approx 177 psi), it takes the form of a liquid.
How much liquid gas in a 100 ln propane tank?
23.6 gallons. That's the volume of 100 lbs of propane, however, they only fill to about 80% (to allow room for expansion with temperature; otherwise you'd blow out liquid propane!).
Why do propane tanks stay cool when the burner is on?
Because the propane in the tank is mostly liquid and as the propane gas at the top of the tank is removed to be burned the liquid propane must evaporate to replace it. Evaporating a liquid requires heat, which the liquid takes from things around it. The tank is in closest contact with the liquid propane, so it cools fastest.
Why do propane gas bottles freeze when in use?
As you use the tank, the pressure inside goes down. As the pressure drops, the temperature also drops because of something called the Ideal Gas Law (see the "Ideal Gas Law" Related Questions linked the left of this answer). Ice forms on the tank because water moisture in the atmosphere is condensed on the cold tank and then frozen.
Is gasoline gas liquid or solid?
Gasoline is liquid at standard temperature and pressure.
Is propane gas liquid or gas?
Propane is a gas a room temperature if it is not compressed. However, if it put in a canister under high enough pressure, it will be a liquid even at room temperature. Propane is a liquid below -44 degrees F or if its compressed. Grill bottles are only fillid 80% full with liquid. so you can use the propane gas on the top of the bottle.
What is the heat capacity of liquid propane?
It depends on the temperature and pressure.
What is tanker?
LPG = Liquid Propane Gas. A LPG tanker is a big ship with tanks to carry the liquid propane gast at low temperature.

What state is bismoth in at room temperature?
At standard temperature and pressure, with a temperature of 25 C specified, bismuth is a solid. If the "room" is in a hot country and not artificially cooled, the bismuth might well be liquid instead.
Is liquid petroleum gas a gas or a liquid?
Under normal temperature and atmospheric pressure conditions propane is gaseous. However, when the temperature is reduced to below −42.09 °C or when it is stored under high pressure (approx 177 psi), it takes the form of a liquid.
Is propane a gas?
Propane is a gas under normal conditions of pressure and temperature, but is normally storm under high pressure as a liquid.
How do you compress natural gas?
Natural gas is compressed when it is cooled. When cooled to a temperature of -162 Degrees, it becomes liquid.
What flammable liquid gives off vapors at below room temperature?
Propane and butane
Is ethanol a liquid at room temperature?
Ethanol is indeed a liquid at standard temperature and pressure.
A liquid cooled down below a certain temperature becomes a what?
it becomes solid.
