When phosgene is reacted with an excess of methanol, this produces dimethyl carbonate. Dimethyl carbonate is used in methylating anilines, phenols, and carboxylic acids, and is also being studied for its use as an alternative additive in fuel.
The industrial production of dimethyl carbonate no longer uses phosgene because of the latter's toxicity. Phosgene widely gained infamy when it was used in chemical warfare during WWI.

Answer:
In fact, a full scuba tank will gain about 5-6 psi for every degree of temperature increase. This is one reason that full tanks should not be left in a hot trunk of a car. A tank filled to 3000 psi could easily reach 3500 psi if the temperature of it increased substantially.
Zero on a pH scale is very A. acidic, and 14 on a pH scale is very basic.
The lower the number on the scale, the more acidic it is.
