TASCO Exit Exam • Set 3 Question 13 of 30

Which is a non-accumulator of charges?

✓

Direct Answer

Option D: Kotones is a Non-accumulator of charges

Ketones are classified as non-accumulators of static charge because they possess sufficient conductivity to dissipate charge build-up during cargo transfer. Toluene and cyclohexane are hydrocarbons with low conductivity (accumulators), while alcohols are generally polar but often treated differently; ketones are the standard example of a non-accumulator in this context.
