A) The tank datum point is a reference point used to measure the depth or level of the liquid in the tank, and is not determined using litmus paste.
B) Innage refers to the depth of the liquid in the tank, which is also not determined using litmus paste.
D) Ullage refers to the empty space above the liquid in the tank, which is also not determined using litmus paste.
