Fire is the process of the rapid oxidation of combustible material. Since it is not an object, it has no weight. The objects that burn have weight and the ash from the burning has weight.

In any given fire, the total weight of the fuel will be more than the total weight of the ash, because fire releases gasses and they disperse into the atmosphere and do not stay with the ash.

Fire does not have a weight, as it is non- matter. However, ash and its fuel do have weights
