Tap Water is flammable, because it contains Methane gas.

However, pure water itself (unaffected by other chemicals) is not flammable.

The previous answer about dripping water onto a heated iron is incorrect. If the iron is hot enough, the water will just evaporate, producing no flame.

No.

Only a substance can be flammable - a solid, liquid, gas etc.

Electricity is a form of energy, not a substance.
