Passage:
Hydraulic brake fluid is engineered to withstand extreme heat generated during braking without vaporizing. However, standard brake fluid is hygroscopic, which means it steadily absorbs moisture from the surrounding air. When moisture enters the hydraulic system, it lowers the fluid's boiling point. If the operating temperature exceeds this reduced threshold during heavy use, moisture pockets can turn into steam, creating air gaps that weaken braking force.

Statement: Based on the passage, brake fluid that has been exposed to the air for an extended period will boil at a lower temperature than newly manufactured fluid.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

True
The statement is logically supported by the passage. Because the text explicitly notes that brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air and that moisture lowers its boiling point, it is directly implied that prolonged exposure to air results in a lower boiling temperature.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the stated properties of brake fluid in the passage.
Brake fluid absorbs moisture from ambient air (hygroscopic property), and moisture lowers its boiling point.
This establishes the factual premises necessary to evaluate the unstated consequence.
2
Deduce the implied condition of fluid exposed to air over time compared to fresh fluid.
Exposed fluid will have absorbed more moisture from the air, resulting in a lower boiling point than fresh fluid.
Connecting moisture absorption from air directly to the reduction in boiling temperature validates the statement as true.
