Can graphite burn and produce flames?
Yes, graphite can burn and produce flames when exposed to a high enough temperature.
How do you burn sulphur?
To burn sulfur, you need to heat it to its ignition temperature of approximately 246 degrees Celsius (475 degrees Fahrenheit. Once it reaches this temperature, it will start to burn and produce sulfur dioxide gas and sulfur trioxide. It is important to handle burning sulfur with caution due to the toxic fumes it can produce.
Why steam causes more severe burns than boiling water?
Boiling water is by definition a temperature of 212 degrees F (100 degrees C), because it is moving through the phase change. Steam is water vapor and already past the phase change from liquid to gas and so can be a much higher temperature. The higher the temperature, the more severe the burn.
Why does steam give you more burns that water?
steam is the gaseous transformation that takes place on heating water to its boiling point.Steam will give you more burn than the water boiling at 100 c as it has the latent heat of vapourisation in addition to the heat of fusion.Basically it has more heat content in the steam state than boiling water state.
Can you put iodine on a burn?
No, it is not recommended to put iodine on a burn. Iodine can further irritate the burn and delay the healing process. It is better to clean the burn with mild soap and water, and then cover it with a sterile bandage. If the burn is severe, seek medical attention.

Why is a burn caused by a steam more severe than a burn caused by a boiling water if they have the same temperature?
Steam carries more energy than boiling water. When water is at its boiling point, it requires additional energy to boost it into a gaseous state. When the steam comes in contact with a cooler object and condense back to a liquid, it releases that energy as heat. If that object is human skin, that heat will cause a burn. - - - - - It would be very rare to have steam with the same temperature as boiling liquid water. The only way to keep water liquid past 100 degrees C is to put it under pressure. By contrast, once you have formed steam you can raise it to just about any temperature you want - there are many industrial processes that require steam at 600 degrees F. Hence, at least part of the reason burns from steam are more severe than burns from boiling water, is the steam is hotter.
