Not quite. The correct answer is highlighted.

Correct answer to question 33 (Tank Vehicles): Liquid surge affects handling in a curve regardless of which liquid is being hauled, even though the weights differ

Why

Surge is a property of any liquid moving inside a partly filled tank, so both loads push outward in a curve even though gasoline weighs less than the same volume of water.
