Question 802 Deck Safety

The correct answer is D) 500 to 1000 gallons of foam. High expansion foam is a type of firefighting foam that is designed to rapidly expand when mixed with air, creating a large volume of foam from a small amount of concentrate. According to Coast Guard regulations, one gallon of high expansion foam solution can produce 500 to 1000 gallons of expanded foam, making it a highly effective and efficient firefighting agent. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the expansion ratio of high expansion foam. Option A) 8 to 10 gallons of foam is too low, while options B) 25 to 50 gallons and C) 100 to 200 gallons are also significantly underestimated.
