    • Point at which the principal surface of the liquid cuts the hydrometer scale.

    Correct Answer
    A. Point at which the principal surface of the liquid cuts the hydrometer scale.
    Explanation
    The correct place to take the reading for the American Petroleum Institute (API) gravity test is at the point at which the principal surface of the liquid cuts the hydrometer scale. This is because the API gravity test measures the density or specific gravity of petroleum liquids relative to water. The hydrometer is used to measure this density, and the point at which the liquid cuts the hydrometer scale indicates the specific gravity of the liquid. Taking the reading at the top or bottom of the hydrometer or cylinder would not provide an accurate measurement of the liquid's density.

    • Petroleum ether.

    • Isopropyl alcohol.

    • Filtered turbine fuel.

    • Demineralized water.

    Correct Answer
    A. Filtered turbine fuel.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is filtered turbine fuel. This is because prior to using new sample containers for solids testing, they need to be rinsed with a substance that is compatible with the type of testing being conducted. In this case, filtered turbine fuel is the most appropriate choice as it is commonly used in laboratory settings for cleaning and rinsing purposes. Petroleum ether, isopropyl alcohol, and demineralized water may not be suitable for this specific purpose and could potentially contaminate the samples or interfere with the testing process.

    (214) When obtaining a sample for fiber analysis how much fuel should be allowed to pass through a filter separator vessel?

    • 500 gallons (gal).

    • 1,000 gals.

    • 2,000 gals.

    • 4,000 gals.

    Correct Answer
    A. 2,000 gals.
    Explanation
    When obtaining a sample for fiber analysis, it is important to allow a sufficient amount of fuel to pass through the filter separator vessel in order to obtain an accurate representation of the fiber content. Allowing too little fuel to pass through may result in an insufficient sample size, while allowing too much fuel may dilute the fiber content and affect the accuracy of the analysis. Therefore, allowing 2,000 gallons of fuel to pass through the filter separator vessel is the correct amount to ensure a reliable sample for fiber analysis.

    (214) Cleaning of the probe before conductivity testing is not required

    • For new probes.

    • If the probe has been cleaned in the past 48 hours.

    • When the probe has been stored in a sealed package.

    • When the conductivity meter can be zeroed with the probe attached.

    Correct Answer
    A. When the conductivity meter can be zeroed with the probe attached.
    Explanation
    Conductivity testing measures the ability of a substance to conduct an electric current. When the conductivity meter can be zeroed with the probe attached, it means that the meter is able to calibrate and adjust for any potential interference or impurities on the probe. This indicates that the probe is in good working condition and does not require any additional cleaning before conductivity testing.

    (214) When performing a fuel systems icing inhibitor (FSII) analysis, the fuel/water mixture in the separatory funnel should be shaken for

    • One minute.

    • Three minutes.

    • Five minutes.

    • Six minutes.

    Correct Answer
    A. Five minutes.
    Explanation
    When performing a fuel systems icing inhibitor (FSII) analysis, the fuel/water mixture in the separatory funnel should be shaken for five minutes. This duration ensures proper mixing of the fuel and water, allowing any potential icing inhibitor to be evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Shaking for a shorter duration may result in incomplete mixing, while shaking for a longer duration may not yield any significant improvement in the distribution of the icing inhibitor. Therefore, five minutes is the most appropriate duration for the shaking process in this analysis.
