🔍 Key Concepts

• Boiler water chemistry and how dissolved solids affect steam quality • Difference between alkaline and acidic conditions in a boiler • What conditions lead to stable bubbles and wet steam at the water surface

💭 Think About

• Think about which condition makes the water surface act like soapy water, allowing bubbles to build up and carry water into the steam line. • Ask yourself: does foaming usually come from too little treatment or from too much of certain treatment chemicals? • Consider which option would increase dissolved and suspended solids that can create a frothy layer on the boiler water surface.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which condition typically leads to stable foam and carryover rather than simple corrosion or pitting. • Verify which choice is most often associated with high total dissolved solids (TDS) in boiler water. • Eliminate any options that describe conditions known mainly for metal corrosion rather than foam formation.
