70% to passWhich of the following is not an acceptable unit of measure to be used consistently throughout an Oil Record Book?
A
tons
B
gallons
C
cubic meters
D
barrels
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) tons. The Oil Record Book requires that all entries be made in consistent units of measure, typically gallons, cubic meters, or barrels. Tons is not an acceptable unit of measure to be used consistently throughout the Oil Record Book, as it does not provide the necessary information on the actual volume of oil or oily mixtures handled. The other options (gallons, cubic meters, and barrels) are acceptable units of measure that can be used consistently throughout the Oil Record Book, as they directly represent the volume of the substances being recorded.
