Gas-tight containers used for storage of gases must consider which additional factor alongside temperature and pressure?

Transportation conditions
Humidity levels
Weight constraints
Material durability

The correct answer is: Transportation conditions

Gas-tight containers are designed to safely store gases under specific conditions, ensuring that there is no leakage that could compromise safety or integrity. While temperature and pressure are crucial factors to manage, transportation conditions are also vital. These containers must be evaluated for how they will perform during transport, as various factors can impact their structural integrity and leak prevention. For instance, vibrations, impacts, and changes in atmospheric conditions during transportation can affect the containment of gases. Ensuring that the container can withstand these transportation conditions helps to prevent accidental releases and ensures safety for both the operators handling the containers and the environment. The other options, such as humidity levels, weight constraints, and material durability, are important considerations in their own right, but they do not directly align with the primary focus of safeguarding gas storage during transportation, which is the concern in this context.
