Solution

The correct option is B It can store in the cylinders under high pressure
Carbon dioxide is a gas that can be store in cylinders under high pressure like LPG. When it is released from the cylinder, carbon dioxide expands enormously in volume and cools down. So, it does not only forms a blanket around the fire but also brings down the temperature of the fuel.
