What 2 elements can produce a common substance that could extinguish fires when chemically combined?
The removal of air (oxygen), which breaks the chemistry of fire, will put it out. The cooling of a fire or the removal of fuel, either of which stop the fire, will use physics to suppress it. For most fires, we can apply the principle of the fire triangle. This includes air (oxygen), heat and fuel at the corners (vertices) of the triangle. Remove one and the triangle falls apart, and this idea is used to attack and suppress fires.

Where did the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire name come from?
In 1911, there was a factory that made shirtwaists in New York City. A shirtwaist was a kind of woman's blouse. The name of the company was the Triangle Shirtwaist Company, so their factory was called the Triangle Shirtwaist factory. In March 1911, there was a disastrous fire in the factory and 146 employees, most young women, died in the fire or jumped to their deaths to avoid the fire. That factory fire came to be called the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire or the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire.

Why did the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire happen?
The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire probably happened because someone threw a cigarette butt into a waste can containing cloth scraps. The deaths happened because there was not a good fire alarm system, most exit doors were locked to prevent early departure from the workplace, and the fire department did not have equipment that could reach to the level where the factory, and the fire, was in the building.

Is there anything that can be sprayed or done to eliminate the fruit or balls from growing on the liquid amber trees?
Most unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done to eliminate the spiny gumballs from the tree. There is a fruitless variety, but it is difficult to locate at a nursery and it does not have as strong of a fall color like the fruiting variety.
What are the 3 ways to extinguish a fire?
First you need to look at the fire triangle. In the fire triangle (consisting of heat, fuel, air) the firefighter removes one of the sides of the triangle, thus extinguishing the fire. There is also the fire tetrahedron which has the addition of a chemical chain reaction. The most common way to put out a fire is with water. This cools the fire and then also helps to remove the air with the expansion of the water into steam. Some departments use a wetting agent, or foam, added to the water. This helps to remove the fuel and air from the equation. Lastly, depending on the fire, a chemical is used that helps to disrupt the amount of air the fire has to burn and smothers it. This could be a dry chemical from and extinguisher or even a gas from a CO2 extinguisher.
