Q

The amount of sodium phosphate in treated boiler water can be measured by a/an __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Water chemistry tests used in marine boiler water treatment • Difference between tests that measure specific chemicals vs. overall properties (like alkalinity) • Typical standard tests for phosphate-treated boiler water

💭 Think About

• Which test name directly corresponds to measuring the actual chemical added for boiler scale control? • Which options describe general water properties rather than a specific treatment chemical? • In real engine room practice, what would the test kit for controlling scale by phosphates usually be called?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option refers to a specific ion or compound rather than a broad property. • Eliminate tests that primarily monitor corrosion or salinity instead of treatment chemicals. • Ask yourself: On a boiler water log sheet, what would the column heading be for phosphate residual?
