Heat and carbon dioxide


Does the oxygen burned from fire turn into carbon dioxide?

Not on its own, and it depends on what is burning. A fire can only produce carbon dioxide if the substance burning with the oxygen contains carbon. And even then, if there are other elements, you will get more substances as products. Carbon will produce carbon dioxide and usually some carbon monoxide as well. Hydrogen will produce water vapor. Sulfur will produce sulfur dioxide. Magnesium will produce magnesium oxide.


Does helium produce carbon dioxide?

No, helium does not produce carbon dioxide. Helium is an inert gas and does not react chemically with other substances to produce carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is produced from the combustion of carbon-containing compounds.

What gas does fire create?

Fire primarily creates carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other combustion byproducts such as carbon monoxide and particulate matter. This combination of gases and particles is what produces the flames and heat that we see and feel during a fire.


Why do fire extinguishers have carbon dioxide when fire is made out of carbon dioxide?

carbon dioxide is significantly denser than air and tends to settle on the ground displacing oxygen and putting out the fire. Nitrogen makes up 78% of the atmosphere so 100% nitrogen isn't very different in density than air.

Can carbon monoxide be used in fire extinguisher?

Not really. Carbon monoxide fumes are toxic and it is cheaper and easier to produce (and use) carbon dioxide instead. Additionally, carbon monoxide is flammable. It reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide.


What is produced after a fire?
