🔍 Key Concepts

• Flammability and vapor density of different cargoes • How quickly a substance produces ignitable vapor-air mixtures at normal temperatures • Difference between toxic vapors and flammable/explosive vapors

💭 Think About

• Which of these substances gives off vapors that can form a wide flammable range with air and can travel to an ignition source? • Think about which cargo’s vapors are heavier than air and tend to accumulate in low spaces, making them especially dangerous on board. • Which substance is commonly classified and handled as a highly flammable liquid hydrocarbon in tanker operations?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which substance has the lowest flash point (easiest to ignite). • Check which vapor is heavier than air, increasing the risk of accumulation. • Distinguish between toxicity (harm to health) and flammability/explosiveness (fire/explosion risk) when thinking about “most dangerous vapors.”
