Does a gasoline is a liquid gas or solid?

When you get it, it's liquid; it won't burn until it's been converted to a gas. Gasoline will freeze by the time it gets to -50C. Then it would be a solid. But most of us don't go out in that weather.


Why does the temperature in Thar desert rise to 50C in morning and fall to 15C in night?

Because deserts are always cold at night and hot in the day this is because there are little clouds which don't trap alot of heat in the night, so all of the heat is lost into the atmosphere.


What is the warmest temperature ever recorded in Europe?

The highest temperature ever recorded in Europe (several times successively), has been in Spain. 1876 was not the only year that Spain reportedly reached 50C, and it was not recorded with faulty equipment, as some would have you believe, (only copying some silly reports on the net). On many occasions, and in several different locations, from Cordoba to Seville, to Malaga, the temperature has been 50C or more in the shade. There is absolutely no way that a faulty reading would have made it in the record books, as supposedly some say, especially when these dedicated scientists are only interested in hard empirical facts. The people doing the tests, would have known the thermometers were unreliable, and taken readings with more than one thermometer if in doubt, therefore immediately discarding any false readings, as were other readings if you look at other countries. What is more, natives, as well as foreigners living in Spain, have personally attested to these temperatures having been reached, reporting tourists dropping to the floor at 52C in Malaga, for example, in the 90s. Others, including natives, being hospitalised in Madrid and around the South, all in different years and, all reporting a minimum temperature of at least 50C in the shade. Scientific Proof: Tunisia, has a recorded max. temp. over 50C (55C, at Kebili, 2009), and this fact is not disputed, yet mid Tunisia is only 2 degrees further South in latitude than Southern Spain - 133 miles. Temperature rises 1C for every 100 miles closer you go to the equator. This, therefore, also supports findings that in Spain, even 53.7C is possible. And being larger in landmass than both Italy and Greece (and being much closer to North Africa than either one), Spain will also be hotter, (and it is, having desert along the SE corner), easily surpassing their disputed shared max. of only 48.8C. NB: (And in Europe's 2004 heatwave, it was official all across the UK television channels, that Greece that year had broken its previous temp record, by reaching only 45C, not 48.8)
