Question

During a flashpoint analysis, apply heat to the sample so that the temperature increases at a rate of

a. 7°F-9°F per minute.
b. 8°F-10°F per minute.
c. 9°F-11°F per minute.
d. 10°F-12°F per minute.

Answer 1

Option B). The correct rate of temperature increase during a flashpoint analysis is 8°F-10°F per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Heat is applied to a sample to raise its temperature at a specific rate during a flashpoint analysis. The right response, given the available options, is (b): 8°F–10°F per minute.

When figuring out a substance's flashpoint, this information is pertinent. The lowest temperature at which a substance releases enough vapor to ignite is referred to as the flashpoint. The sample can be heated at a precise rate to enable precise measurement and flashpoint determination. Hence, Option B) is the correct answer.
