🔍 Key Concepts

• TBN (Total Base Number) in lubricating oil chemistry • The role of lube oil additives in protecting engine parts • How diesel combustion byproducts affect crankcase oil

💭 Think About

• Think about what harmful substances are produced during diesel fuel combustion that can contaminate the lube oil. • Ask yourself: what specific property does a high TBN indicate about the oil’s capability inside the engine? • Consider which option describes a chemical neutralizing function versus a purely physical or thermal property.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choices describe physical properties (like viscosity or emulsification) versus chemical properties. • Recall that diesel fuel sulfur can form acidic byproducts in the engine—what must the oil be able to do about that? • Check which option directly relates to the oil’s alkaline reserve or ability to counteract harmful chemical compounds.
