🔍 Key Concepts

• Fire triangle: fuel, oxygen, and ignition source must all be present for combustion • How inert gas systems are used on tankers to keep oxygen content below the flammable range • Difference between substances that support combustion vs those that prevent it

💭 Think About

• Which option would reduce or control the oxygen concentration inside a cargo tank so that vapors cannot ignite, even if a spark occurs? • Look at each choice and ask: does this make burning easier, harder, or impossible in the tank atmosphere? • On tank vessels, what system is specifically designed and required by regulations to keep cargo tanks non‑flammable during loading, transit, and discharge?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which item is actually used on tankers’ cargo tanks as part of a standard safety system to keep tanks safe from explosion • Check which choice would not support burning but instead displace oxygen or lower oxygen concentration • Eliminate any choices that are designed to promote or stabilize combustion or that are unrelated to tank atmosphere control
