What is a chip-pan fire?
The Stages of a chip pan fire 1. Oil gets so hot that it catches fire all by itself 2. Water is poured into the burning chip pan 3. Water is denser than oil, so it sinks to the bottom of the chip pan (shown in red). As the water touches the bottom, it is heated above its boiling point and instantly vaporizes. 4. The water vapour expands rapidly, ejecting a fireball of burning oil out of the chip pan and into the air where its surface area increases greatly and combustion proceeds much faster
When water is in a pan over a flame why does the water get hot?
When water is in a pan over a flame, the heat from the flame is transferred to the water through conduction. As the water molecules gain energy, they move faster, which causes the overall temperature of the water to increase. This process continues until the water reaches its boiling point and starts to evaporate.
What scientific thing is removed when you put out a chip pan fire?
When you put out a chip pan fire, you remove the oxygen supply that is sustaining the flames. By covering the pan with a fire blanket or wet cloth, you starve the fire of oxygen, which is necessary for combustion to occur.
Should I use soapy water in a cast iron pan?
Not a good idea. Cast iron is greased and "seasoned" by being heated, which seals pores in the iron pan. Using soapy water strips that away- it will rust, food will stick to it. Most can be wiped clean. If it does get the soapy water treatment, renew the seasoning by wiping it with oil, heating it in the oven and let it cool.
What happens if you use water to put out a gasoline fire?
Usually, the water will sink under the oil until it heats up enough to turn to steam. It will then come to the surface as a bubble and pop, splattering the hot oil. This can be very dangerous if there if it involves a large amount of oil and water.
How do you boil water on an open fire?
By putting the water in a pan/pot and then hold the pan/pot over the fire until hot :)
How do you make a grease fire?
Throw water onto over-hot chip pan.

Why must we not throw water when there is a fire in a pan?
We do not throw water on a pan fire because of oil and water do not mix together. Oil will float on the surface of water and will leave the pan before the water. The fire is not burning the water. It's using the oil for combustion.
What should you do if your pan was on fire?
Cover the pan with a lid to cut off air to the fire. Turn off the heat to the pan. LEAVE THE PAN ON THE STOVE. Most people are burned while trying to deal with that very hot pan.
How do get hard caramel out of a pan?
Soak in hot water
What melts faster ice in hot water or ice in a frying pan?
Ice melts faster in hot water than in a frying pan. When ice is placed in a hot frying pan, it forms a layer of steam which it floats upon, that insulates it, to some degree, from the frying pan. Thermal conduction is better when it is immersed in hot water.
What will happen if you put something in a hot pan?
If you were to put something in a hot pan it would matter what it is , if it were to be a block of butter it would dissolve because there is so much heat
What are the potential risks associated with having water in a hot water heater pan?
Having water in a hot water heater pan can pose risks such as potential leaks, corrosion of the water heater, and the growth of mold or bacteria due to standing water.
When you boil water to make pasta hot water from the bottom of the pan carried thermal energy to water molecules at the top of the pan. this is an example of?
convection

Would it take more thermal energy to heat up a cold pan of water than a hot pan of water?
Yes
