Best Answer

powder sugar works better because each particle is more exposed to heat and oxygen but if given right amount of heat a sugar cube should light

A sugar cube alone will not light on fire but if you add ashes ,which work as a catalyst, the sugar cube will light fire.

Yes, In some cases sugar can. Sugar, Baking Soda and salt Re remedies to put out a grease fire. An extinguisher would work too. But never ever pour water on grease fires because it'll get worse. In the case of wild fires water is ok!
