Answer : Option D
Explanation :
Volatility of diesel fuel oil is Indicated by 90% distillation temperature, i.e., when 90% of sample oil has distilled off. Volatility refers to how easily a fuel vaporizes. It affects how easily you can start your car, warm it up, and how well it runs. Diesel fuel comes in two basic grades, each with a different volatility. Automobiles use one and large trucks do better on the other.
