Which complication ensues when cryogenic liquid propellant tank pressure decreases?

A)Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium shifts to vapor
B)Tank temperature begins to uniformly rise
C)Liquid density will begin to normalize
D)Convection currents intensify rapidly

💡 Explanation

The vapor pressure falls, which shifts the vapor-liquid equilibrium via Le Chatelier's principle because the system favors an increased vapor phase to restore vapor pressure; therefore vapor lock becomes more likely, rather than convective effects growing.
