AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) -108°F (-78°C).
The flash point of vinyl chloride is -108°F (-78°C), which is the temperature at which the vapor of this chemical can ignite in the presence of an ignition source. This low flash point is due to vinyl chloride's highly flammable nature and volatile properties.
The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the flash point of vinyl chloride. For example, answer choices A, B, and C have significantly higher flash points that do not match the characteristics of this specific chemical.
