I’m cooking chili on my coleman camp stove and my propane tank has frost on it it’s so cold. Why?
In: Chemistry
Turning propane from a liquid (in the tank) to a gas (in the lines / burner), requires quite a bit of energy.
That energy is extracted from the heat in the air the tank is in.
That “heat sucking” of the propane results in the tank cooling down, which causes frost.
