Question 695 Deck Safety

The correct answer is D) Water (stored pressure). For a Class B fire, which involves flammable liquids or gases, a water-based extinguisher (stored pressure) would be the least desirable option. This is because water is not effective at extinguishing fires involving flammable liquids, as it can spread the fire rather than put it out. The other options, such as dry chemical, carbon dioxide, and foam extinguishers, are more suitable for Class B fires as they effectively smother and cool the flames. Water extinguishers are better suited for Class A fires involving ordinary combustible materials.
