baking powder
o
It is mined but there are different types Monoammonium phosphate Sodium bicarbonate Potassium bicarbonate Potassium bicarbonate & Urea Complex Potassium Chloride these are just the powder type
basically in DCP (dry chemical powder) fire extinguishers mono ammoniumphosphate is used. but some more chemicals compound are also used e.g. sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, pottasium chloride etc. Yousaf Imran. Pakistan.
For kitchen use you want a Class K - cooking oils and fats - extinguisher.

aluminium sulphate solution rects with sodium bicarbonate to give aluminium hydroxide, sodium sulphate and carbon dioxide. Al2(SO4)3 +6 NaHCO3 = 3 Na2SO4 + 2Al(OH)3 + 6 CO2 This reaction can be seen in a foam based fire extinguisher
Sodium chloride
powder or foam :)
When heat from a fire is applied to sodium bicarbonate, it causes a chemical reaction that releases carbon dioxide gas, water, and sodium carbonate. This reaction is known as thermal decomposition.
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.
There are two kinds of fire extinguisher powders. The first is monoammonium phosphate, which you find in A-B-C dry chemical extinguishers. To make it, add phosphoric acid to ammonia water until the mixture turns acidic, and the monoammonium phosphate will crystallize out of solution. In B-C fire extinguishers you will find sodium bicarbonate. This is baking soda, and you can get that at any grocery store.
Sodium bicarbonate, also known as baking soda, has various uses. It is commonly used in baking as a leavening agent to help baked goods rise. It can also be used as a household cleaner, a deodorizer, a natural toothpaste, and to alleviate heartburn and indigestion when taken orally. Additionally, it is used in certain medical treatments and as a fire extinguisher agent.
