Astor Manufacturing stores hazardous and volatile chemicals in its warehouse. The warehouse has state-of-the-art equipment to make sure the chemicals do not explode. An unexpected earthquake shakes the warehouse, causing the chemicals to explode and injure William, a passerby on a nearby sidewalk. Astor Manufacturing is .A. liable to Will only if the company was grossly negligent
B. not liable to Will because it satisfied its duty to passerbys
C. strictly liable for Will's injuries
D. not liable to Will because Jason voluntarily assumed the risk of injury

C. strictly liable for Will's injuries

Explanation:

In law, Strict liability is a situation when defendant is required to be responsible to a certain situation, but can't be considered as guilty to any violation.

There are two points that need to be highlighted from the case above:

1.  Astor Manufacturing process has fulfilled all of its safety regulation for storing the dangerous product.

2. The dangerous product owned by Astor Manufacturing caused William's injury.

The regulations for hazard management is created by the government, and the leak is not caused by their negligence. It's caused by unexpected natural disaster.  This is why we can't say that Astor is guilty to any violation.

But still, the chemical that they created injured William. The court will most likely force Astor to be responsible for all the medical expenses incurred by william.
