      Water

    • B.

      Foam

    • C.

      DCP

    • D.

      CO2

    Correct Answer
    B. Foam
    Explanation
    Foam is the best suitable chemical for solvent fire because it creates a thick blanket that covers the fuel surface, preventing oxygen from reaching the fire and extinguishing it. Foam also helps to cool down the fire, reducing the heat and preventing re-ignition. It is effective for both polar and non-polar solvents and is widely used in industries where solvent fires are a common hazard. Water is not suitable for solvent fires as it can spread the fire and may cause an explosion. DCP (Dry Chemical Powder) and CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) are effective for some types of fires but may not be as suitable for solvent fires as foam.

      2% to 8%

    • B.

      1% - 10%

    • C.

      10% - 40%

    • D.

      1.5% - 10.2%

    Correct Answer
    A. 2% to 8%
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 2% to 8%. LEL (Lower Explosive Limit) and UEL (Upper Explosive Limit) are the concentration ranges of a gas or vapor in the air that can produce a fire or explosion. For LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas), the LEL is typically around 2% and the UEL is around 8%. This means that if the concentration of LPG in the air is below 2% or above 8%, it will not ignite or explode. However, if the concentration is within this range, there is a potential for fire or explosion.
