70% to pass

Camphor oil is classified as a _______________.

A Grade A flammable liquid
B Grade C flammable liquid
C Grade D combustible liquid
D Grade E combustible liquid
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) Grade D combustible liquid. Camphor oil is classified as a Grade D combustible liquid according to the regulations governing the US Coast Guard Captain's License Examinations. Combustible liquids are defined as liquids with a flash point at or above 100°F (37.8°C), and Grade D combustible liquids have a flash point between 150°F (65.6°C) and 200°F (93.3°C). Camphor oil falls within this range, making it a Grade D combustible liquid. The other answer choices are incorrect because Grade A and Grade B refer to flammable liquids with lower flash points, while Grade E combustible liquids have a higher flash point range than camphor oil.
