A soda-acid extinguisher expells water (actually a dilute sodium sulfate solution formed by the reaction of the soda and the acid). Therefore, it's used on the same types of fires as normal water extinguishers; wood, paper, textiles and so on. It must NOT be used on burning liquids (which would be splashed around, sperading the fire) or on live electrical equipment (becuse of the risk of electrocution).
carbonic acid, citric acid
Lemon juice contains citric acid which is acidic. Baking Soda contains mainly sodium bicarbonate. An acid plus a carbonate or bicarbonate produces Carbon Dioxide which will put a flame out and is the basis for one type of fire extinguisher.
Baking Soda-emoticon-ill
An extinguisher rated to fight type-B and type-C fires. Type-B fires involve burning liquids. Type-C fires involve charged electrical components. A BC extinguisher is either dry chemical using bicarbonate of soda as its extinguishing agent or a carbon dioxide extinguisher.
There are several categories of fire extinguishers. It depends on where the extinguisher is likely to be used and on what type of fire is to be expected. For example: a soda and water extinguisher is commonly used for general type fires. But, due to the risk of being electrocuted, a soda and water extinguisher would be dangerous to use round high voltage electrical equipment - so a carbon dioxide extinguisher would be used instead. On oil fires, a foam extinguisher would be best, as a soda water extinguisher would simply spread the area of the oil fire, and even increase the intensity of the flames, while the foam would smother the flames, cutting off the oxygen to feed the fire.
Most of the contents of soda-acid extinguishers (which are obsolete and completely illegal in the USA) is water. Water and oil don't mix well. The water may actually spread an oil fire as the flaming oil expands across the surface of the newly created puddle of water or as the oil is splashed in all directions by the force of the spray. Soda-acid extinguishers can also be hazardous to operate even to fight the type of fire they were designed to fight (wood or paper fires) due to the fact that they contain a jar of sulphuric acid. As the user must invert the extinguisher first to dump the sulphuric acid into the sodium bicarbonate solution in the body of the extinguisher there is a chance that if something is wrong with the extinguisher or the user holds the nozzle wrong at that moment, he might get sulphuric acid on his skin or clothes!
Because baking soda is alkaline and reacts with acid to form salt and water. the type of salt you end up with depends on the type of acid you mix it with. in the case stomach acid we have hydrochloric acid and the salt is sodium chloride or common salt.
It's the type of acid, not the fact that it's acid. I wouldn't drink battery acid but I would drink citric acid (orange juice).
Carbon dioxide, or foam, or dry powder. At no time should a soda water extinguisher be used, as the water will cause the burning gasoline to flare up and spread even further.
