What does fire retardent do?
Fire retardent would cut off the necessary oxygen for the fire to continue and hence the fire will be put off.
What is an oxygen fed-fire?
An oxygen-fed fire is a fire that has (most likely) pure oxygen fueling it. The air we breathe is composed of around 19% oxygen, therefore by adding more oxygen the fire will get hotter.
Fire and oxygen?
Fire is a process of rapid combination with oxygen.
How air helps in burning explain with diagram?
A fire needs oxygen to burn. A fire in an enclosed space will go out if not enough oxygen is present to keep the fire going. A diagram of this type would show the air flow moving toward a fire instead of away from it.
Does fire need air or oxygen?
The fire is fueled by oxygen in the air. There is no significant amount of hydrogen gas found in the atmosphere.Does the question relate to a laboratory experiment involving hydrogen gas? Or is the question a general one? Oxygen is not a fuel, but it is required to support combustion, or rapid oxidation. Hydrogen is combustible and can be used as fuel. If you burn hydrogen, the fire is being fueled by the hydrogen, not the oxygen, but without O2, the hydrogen would not burn.
What will happen if fire would not get any oxygen?
The fire will be put out.
What would happen if you tried to burn oxygen?
Nothing. Oxygen itself is not flammable. Fire is a reaction between a flammable substance and oxygen.
What can happen when oil is mixed with oxygen under pressure?
If it's something like grease, it could start fire.
What will happen if the oxygen will increase?
what would happen if oxygen increased would probaly not be any more benefcial, because we survive off of oxygen and if it could be beneficial beacuse it could be more pressure in out body and we wouldnt be able to take all of that in.
How does fire affect air?
Part of air is made up of oxygen without which fire can't happen. Air can feed a fire; it contains oxygen.
Happen if you dropped a lighted match in a bowl of flour what would happen?
nothing. the flour is all together. if it would be flour dust, the oxygen could get to the individual particles and then it could catch fire
What can happen if you smoke around an oxygen tank?
fire - explosion - boom.
Why charcoal burns slowly when left undisturbed?
Because when you blow on the coals you are adding oxygen to the fire and oxygen fuels a fire. A fire would simply go out without any oxygen. Because when you blow on the coals you are adding oxygen to the fire and oxygen fuels a fire. A fire would simply go out without any oxygen.
What will happen if you put a jar over a burning candle?
the candle would eventually burn out because it needs oxygen to keep the flame going and when the jar is on top, no oxygen is getting to the fire
What would happen if you lit a match with grass or something in a glass bottle?
The grass would presumably catch on fire, however, if the bottle was sealed, the fire would eventually burn out due to the lack of oxygen required to continue combustion.
What would fire look like without oxygen?
Nothing. Fire consumpts oxygen to light and remain.
What would happen if you tried to light a match on mars?
There would be no flame because fire needs oxygen to burn, and the Martian atmosphere consists mainly of Carbon Dioxide.
