70% to pass

Which of the following is the pipe used to connect two separate piping systems on a tank vessel?

A crossover
B transfer
C connection
D junction
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) crossover. A crossover is the pipe used to connect two separate piping systems on a tank vessel. This is a common configuration to allow the transfer of liquids or gases between different piping systems on the vessel. The crossover provides a physical connection and pathway for moving materials between the systems. The other answer choices are not as accurate. A transfer would refer to the actual movement of the material, not the physical pipe. A connection is a more general term for any type of joint or link between piping. And a junction is a point where two or more pipes meet, but does not necessarily imply a dedicated crossover pipe.
