Question 45Safety & Environmental - Assistant Engineer
70% to passBunker "C" is classified as a grade _______________.
AA liquid
BB liquid
CE liquid
DD liquid
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) E liquid. Bunker "C" is a heavy, residual fuel oil that is classified as an E liquid under the US Coast Guard regulations. E liquids are those with a flashpoint of 60°C (140°F) or higher, which is the case for Bunker "C" fuel oil. The other answer choices do not accurately reflect the classification of Bunker "C" - it is not a Grade A, B, or D liquid, but rather an E liquid based on its high flashpoint.
