Which outcome occurs during brazing of refrigeration lines with excessive oxygen flow?

A)Formation of copper oxide scale internally
B)Hydrogen embrittlement of the copper
C)Eutectic alloy formation at the joint
D)Galvanic corrosion initiation

💡 Explanation

When brazing refrigeration lines with excessive oxygen, oxidation occurs because high temperature increases reaction rates, leading to the formation of copper oxide scale within the brazed joint. Therefore copper oxide scale is formed, rather than embrittlement, eutectics, or galvanic corrosion, which require different chemical or metallurgical conditions.
