Question 2785 Deck General
70% to passThe Certificate of Inspection for your tankship authorizes the carriage of grade A and lower products. Which chemical may NOT be carried unless it is specifically endorsed on the Certificate of Inspection?
A
Vinyl acetate
B
Amylene
C
Oleic acid
D
Diisobutyl Phthalate
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) Vinyl acetate. The Certificate of Inspection for a tankship authorizes the carriage of specific cargoes based on the vessel's design and construction. Grade A and lower products generally refer to flammable liquids. Vinyl acetate is a chemical that is not considered a Grade A or lower product, and therefore cannot be carried unless it is specifically endorsed on the Certificate of Inspection. The other options (B, C, D) are likely Grade A or lower products that could be carried on a tankship with the appropriate endorsement on the Certificate of Inspection.
