In an LPG cylinder, the gas is held as a liquid. There is an equilibrium between the LPG (liquid) and its vapour. The equilibrium vapour pressure does not depend upon the quantity of liquid present there as long as liquid ……….. vapour equilibrium is maintained. 

Therefore, even when half the gas has been used, the pressure excited by ’ the vapour of the gas remains equal to 2.5 atm.
