Question 772 Deck General
70% to passIn accordance with regulations, ethylene oxide shall be loaded below what temperature?
A
90°F
B
its flash point
C
70°F
D
51°F
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 70°F. According to Coast Guard regulations, ethylene oxide must be loaded at a temperature below 70°F. This is because ethylene oxide is a flammable gas, and loading it at higher temperatures could increase the risk of fire or explosion. The flash point of ethylene oxide is actually much lower, around -20°F, so option B is incorrect. Options A and D are also incorrect as they do not match the specific 70°F requirement in the regulations.
