You can compress it to a pressure of 2.5 ATM or cool it past its condensing point which is -0.5 °C.
When the liquid butane in a lighter is released, it is exposed to lower pressure and higher temperature in the surrounding environment. This causes the liquid to evaporate and turn into a gas. The gas form of butane is what is ignited to create a flame when using a lighter.
Butane gas is a liquid in lighters because it is under high pressure, which allows it to remain in a liquid state at room temperature. However, when released into water, the pressure decreases and the butane evaporates into a gas due to its low boiling point.
Butane is found as a gas at room temperature and pressure, but can be stored in a liquid form under pressure. It is not found naturally as a solid.
In LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), the propane and butane gases are the solutes, which are dissolved in the solvent of liquid butane. The propane and butane gases are the components that can dissolve in the liquid butane, making up the composition of LPG.
LPG, which stands for liquefied petroleum gas, is a mixture of propane and butane gases that exist in a liquid state when compressed.

Molecules of butane gas are further apart compared to those in liquid butane. In the gaseous state, the molecules have more energy and move freely, resulting in greater distances between them. In contrast, liquid butane molecules are more closely packed due to intermolecular forces, which allow them to remain together despite some movement.

Butane is a hydrocarbon compound found in natural gas and crude oil. Both natural gas and crude oil are fossil fuels. At sufficient pressure and low temperature, it can be a liquid. So in answer to your question, butane is compound that comes from a fossil fuel, and can be both a liquid and a gas depending on the pressure and temperature. Natural gas is mostly methane and ethane, with small amounts of butane and propane, so it is usually stored as a gas phase. Crude oil has many hydrocarbon compounds heavier than butane, so it remains a liquid. See related link.
The temperature of liquid butane sprayed into the air will rapidly decrease as it expands and evaporates, causing it to cool down. This process is known as evaporative cooling, where the liquid absorbs heat from the surroundings in order to transform into a gas.
LPG, which stands for liquefied petroleum gas, is a mixture of propane and butane gases that exist in a liquid state when compressed.
It may be (Butane is a gas, Naphtha is a liquid), but alcohol is also used.
Long answer short, it's pressurized, so the gas that would take up thousands of cubic litres only takes up the space of a cylinder, so it cools when pressurized and forms liquid. Short answer written long, see link below.
LPG, or liquefied petroleum gas, is a mixture, not a solution. It is a mixture of propane and butane, with one concentration being higher depending on the season.
