BIGF Exit Exam • Set 2 Question 29 of 30

Boiling point varies with

✓

Direct Answer

Option C: exerted pressure

Vapour pressure is intrinsically linked to temperature. As exerted pressure increases, the energy required for molecules to escape the liquid phase rises, thereby elevating the boiling point. This fundamental thermodynamic principle is critical for managing LNG fuel tank pressures and preventing uncontrolled boil-off under the IGF Code safety framework.

All Options

A
drop in pressure
B
discharge pressure
C
exerted pressure (Correct Answer)
D
none of the above

Detailed Explanation & Context

Vapour pressure is intrinsically linked to temperature. As exerted pressure increases, the energy required for molecules to escape the liquid phase rises, thereby elevating the boiling point. This fundamental thermodynamic principle is critical for managing LNG fuel tank pressures and preventing uncontrolled boil-off under the IGF Code safety framework.

Relevant Framework: STCW 2010 Manila Amendments • DG Shipping E-Learning & Exit Exam Standards • Basic Training for Ships subject to the IGF Code (BIGF).
