Answer:
Salt domes storage has advantages in cost, security, environmental risk, and maintenance. Salt formations offer the lowest cost, most environmentally secure way to store crude oil for long periods of time. Stockpiling oil in artificially-created caverns deep within the rock-hard salt costs historically about $3.50 per barrel in capital costs. Storing oil in above ground tanks, by comparison, can cost $15 to $18 per barrel - or at least five times the expense. Also, because the salt caverns are 2,000-4,000 feet below the surface, geologic pressures will sea; any crack that develops in the salt formation, assuring that no crude oil leaks from the cavern. An added benefit is the natural temperature differential between the top of the caverns and the bottom - a distance of around 2,000 feet; the temperature differential keeps the crude oil continuously circulating in the caverns, giving the oil a consistent quality.
In a solid, molecules are packed together, and it keeps its shape. Liquids take the shape of the container. Gases spread out to fill the container. Solid is one of the three main states of matter, along with liquid and gas.

Explanation:
We are attempting to synthesize 1-butyne from 1-chlorobutane. Since 1-chlorobutane is a primary alkyl halide, 1-butene is formed when 1-chlorobutane is reacted with a bulky base such as t -BuOK or t -BuOH in presence of strong heat. This is an E2 reaction.
Secondly, the 1-butene is reacted with bromine in carbon tetrachloride. The vicinal dihalide (1,2-dibromobutane) is formed. This can now undergo further elimination reactions in the presence of sodamide and strong heat to yield 1-butyne which is the desired product. These reactions involve the elimination of the first HBr molecule to give an alkenyl bromide. A second elimination now gives the terminal alkyne.
