Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option A: A) 16 Kg.
Portable fire extinguishers must be portable by a single person to ensure rapid response. Regulation limits the weight of a portable extinguisher to a maximum of 23 kg, though 16 kg is often the practical upper limit for ergonomic handling.
