Why on Labels on cylinders of compressed gases state the highest temperature to which the cylinder may be exposed give a reason for this warning?

The highest temperature warning is because as gasses heat they expand and take up more space. If a container gets too hot the gasses reach a point where their volume is too much for the container and the metal can not longer retain its shape, thus causing the cylinder to burst (typically very violently).

Which type of coal was exposed to the highest temperature and pressures for the longest time?
anthracite coal
What does lithium look like at room temperature?
Lithium is a shiny silver metal at room temperature. It is very soft and will oxidize quickly if exposed to air.
How long does it take to freeze dirty water?
That would depend on the amount of water, the temperature it is exposed to, what impurities are in the water and in what concentration.
What substances melt at room temperature?
ice can melt at room temperature. Anything that is liquid at room temperature would, in its frozen state, melt at room temperature. Oils, beverages and mercury - if in a frozen state - would melt when exposed to room temperature.
What are the factors that affect how a solute dissolves?
heat, because the particles move further apart.
How do you replace liftgate cylinders on my 2004 Toyota Highlander?
The entire lift cylinder assembly must be replaced and it is recommended that they be replaced in pairs. The operation is pretty straightforward since all the mounting bolts are exposed and visible.
What happens to rock when it is exposed to very high temperature?
Rock exposed to very high temperature and pressure will soften or melt.
Where are spark plugs in 2005 Lincoln ls?
the same place they are in almost every vehicle, at the top of the cylinders. look for wires coming out of the top or possibly the sides of the cylinders, if you have a 6 cylinder engine there will be 6 wires. 8 cylinder engine 8 wires. you should be able to pull the wires right off and the spark plugs will be exposed. you will need an extremely deep drive socket to replace them. make sure you put the wires back to the exact same cylinder that they were on before and try not to let debris fall into the cylinder when the spark plug is out of the hole. although this may be too complicated for you, you might have to just take it into a shop for this.
Would you freeze instantly if exposed to -150F temperature?
yes
What do you call the temperature on exposed skin that is a comibnation of actual air temperature and wind speed?
Wind chill
Is the phase of matter which is exposed to normal atmospheric pressure solely dependent upon temperature?
Yes. The phase of matter which is exposed to normal atmospheric pressure solely dependent upon temperature.
When a substance is exposed to something that has a lower temperature is heat transferred from it?
True
What is the rate of evaporation?
Humidity, wind, temperature and exposed surface area.
What temperature do you get a first degree burn?
depends how long you were exposed to the heat
Why does the asthenosphere have plasticity?
Because it is exposed to high temperature, but not enough to melt it.
What factors affect how fast a liquid freezes?
the freezing temperature of the liquid, the container it is in, the surface are exposed to the colder mass, the original temperature of the liquid before being exposed to the colder mass, the denseness of the liquid.
How long will a tin melts when exposed to a temperature of 390C in room temperature?
Either it is at 390°C or at room temperature. It can't be both.
