B
Gasoline
C

D
Formic acid
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Gasoline. Gasoline is not a Grade E product according to the U.S. Coast Guard regulations for Captain's License Examinations. Grade E products refer to flammable liquids with a flash point below 80°F (26.7°C), and gasoline has a much lower flash point, typically around -45°F (-43°C). Therefore, gasoline is classified as a Grade D product, which is more hazardous than Grade E. The other options, A) Creosote coal tar, C) Dioctyl-phthalate, and D) Formic acid, are all considered Grade E products based on their flash points and other characteristics.
