Yes, as long as you keep it in a secure covered area. However damage from extreme cold can affect the valves controlling the flow of propane from the tank which can cause problems (potentially very dangerous) come time to use it.
When a propane tank is left outside on a cold winter day, the pressure inside the tank decreases. This is because cold temperatures cause the propane gas to contract and decrease in volume. It is important to monitor the pressure levels in the tank to ensure there is still enough pressure for it to function effectively.
The condensation line on the outside of a propane tank will show the level of fuel. The relative weight can also determine if it is time for a refill. A tank which is rusted or has valve damage should not be refilled.
By pouring hot water on a propane cylinder you are heating the metal cylinder. The liquid propane in the cylinder is cold and forms condensation on the outside of the cylinder showing the level of propane remaining in the tank much like condensation forming on a glass of ice water on a hot day.
No, a propane tank contains propane gas, not oxygen. Propane is a hydrocarbon gas that is commonly used as a fuel source for heating and cooking.
The propane tank holds 30 liters.

If your propane tank was at 40 percent and the propane company filled it to 80 percent, they added 40 percent of the tank's capacity in propane. The amount of gallons added would depend on the size of the tank, as propane tanks come in various sizes.

1 gallon of Propane ~= 4.23 lbs ~= 91500 Btus 1 lbs of Propane ~=22000 Btus 20 lb tank of propane holds approx 4 gallons of propane (366000 BTUs) Your grill will last 366000 BTUs/ Grill BTU output hrs
Information about propane tank services can be found at SIS Propane, Propane 101, Temp Heat, Sparlings, Eagle Propane, Natural Handyman and True Point.
If you put an oil tank outside in a cold climate you need to buy kerosene in the winter, which is more expensive.
Every twelve years it is required by law that a propane tank is certified. The latest date of certification can be located on the neck of the propane tank.
