NEW QUESTION # 19
The more noble material, called the ________, is protected by sacrificial corrosion of the more active material, called the ________. The more active metal corrodes at a higher rate than it would if it were not connected to the more noble metal.
- A. Anode, Cathode

NEW QUESTION # 20
Sulfidation of iron-based alloys usually:
- A. Occurs at metal temperatures above 500°F (260°C)
- B. Occurs only when moisture contacts the surface scale
- C. Occurs in equipment handling sour water
- D. Causes wet hydrogen sulfide cracking of hard welds
Answer: A
Explanation:
API RP 571 and RP 939-C define sulfidation conditions as:
"Sulfidation of iron-based alloys generally becomes significant at temperatures above 500°F (260°C) in hydrocarbon streams with sulfur but without hydrogen."
"For hydrogen-containing environments, this threshold may be reduced to 450°F (230°C)." (Reference: API RP 571, Section 4.2.1.1 - Sulfidation; API RP 939-C, Section 3.1) Therefore, the correct answer is D.
NEW QUESTION # 21
_________ is the result of cyclic stress caused by variations in temperature.
- A. Thermal Fatigue
- B. Creep
- C. Cyclic Cracking
- D. Stress Corrosion Cracking
Answer: A
NEW QUESTION # 22
Which of these materials are susceptible to creep damage?
- A. Carbon steel
- B. Low alloy steel
- C. All of the above
- D. Stainless steel
Answer: C
NEW QUESTION # 23
Changing to a more corrosion resistant and/or higher hardness material _________ improve cavitation resistance.
- A. Will not
- B. Will
- C. May not
- D. May
Answer: C
NEW QUESTION # 24
Cracks formed by carbonate stress corrosion are best detected:
- A. with an Acoustic Emission Testing technique.
- B. with a penetrant testing technique used after abrasive or high pressure water blasting of the surface.
- C. ultrasonic shear wave examination because cracks develop internally.
- D. with a wet fluorescent magnetic-particle testing technique.
Answer: D
Explanation:
According to API RP 571 Section 5.1.2.6 (Carbonate Stress Corrosion Cracking - CSCC):
"The cracking is usually intergranular and is most commonly detected using wet fluorescent magnetic-particle testing (WFMT) after surface cleaning. PT may not be sensitive enough to detect fine cracks formed by this mechanism." Because CSCC cracks are typically surface-connected and very fine, WFMT offers the best visibility, especially after proper surface prep.
Therefore, Option D is correct.
NEW QUESTION # 25
300 series stainless steel heater tubes in an oil-burning furnace in the hydrocracker began to leak and the furnace was brought down. What was the probable cause of the cracking?
- A. Stress oriented hydrogen induced cracking
- B. Chloride stress corrosion
- C. Amine stress corrosion
- D. Polythionic acid stress corrosion
Answer: D
NEW QUESTION # 26
With sulfuric acid corrosion, the presence of oxidizers can _______ the corrosion rate.
- A. Stabilize
- B. Increase
- C. Decrease
- D. Eliminate
Answer: B
NEW QUESTION # 27
Which family of alloys is more sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement during fabrication?
- A. High Strength Low Alloys
- B. Carbon -1/2 Molys
- C. Duplex Stainless Steels
- D. Chrome-Molybdenum Alloys
Answer: A
Explanation:
From API RP 571 Section 5.1.2.1 and RP 941:
"High strength low alloy steels (HSLA) are more susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement, especially during cold work, forming, or welding. These materials, due to their higher tensile strengths, are more prone to cracking when exposed to hydrogen, particularly during fabrication or post-weld heat treatment operations." Therefore, Option A (High Strength Low Alloys) is the correct answer due to their known susceptibility during manufacturing and processing.
