Fire is the release of heat and light during the very rapid combination of oxygen with another substance that we call the fuel of the fire. Although there are other oxidizers that can perform a similar function, in most cases in everyday life you cannot have a fire without a source of oxygen.
What else can I help you with?
True or false fire will not burn without oxygen?
True, fire must have oxygen to burn.
Why does water usually put out fire?
Water stops oxygen from getting to the flame, and oxygen is the fire's food.
The key elements for a fire?
Fuel, Oxygen and Heat Fuel, Oxygen and Heat Fuel, Oxygen and Heat
What three things do you need to make a fire?
Fuel, oxygen and heat or an ignition source are the components needed for a fire.
Does fire use up oxygen?
yes, it burns oxygen at a constant rate, that rate is unknown to me
What effects does oxygen have on fire?
Oxygen keeps the fire going. In some cases, it can make the fire larger, depending on the amount of oxygen around the fire.
How does oxygen distribute fire?
Oxygen does not distribute fire. Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and some flammable substance. Fire cannot burn without oxygen, and the more oxygen there is, the hotter and faster a fire will burn. More oxygen also makes it easier for materials to ignite.
What is an oxygen fed-fire?
An oxygen-fed fire is a fire that is fueled by an increased supply of oxygen, resulting in a more intense and faster-burning fire. It can be more difficult to control and extinguish due to the higher oxygen levels supporting combustion.
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 is a Source of oxygen for a fire?
the air
What happens when you remove fuel and oxygen from fire?
If you remove fuel, oxygen, or both from a fire, the fire goes out.
Is fire under the ocean?
Fire requires oxygen. There is no free oxygen in the ocean. Therefore there can be no fire at the bottom of the ocean.
Why cant you set a fire to the Moon's surface?
there is no oxygen on the moon, therefore, a fire could not start because in the fire triangle, (the materials needed to start a fire) the fire needs oxygen, which the moon does not have, fuel, and heat.
What happens when you remove oxygen from a wood fire?
That is, what they already do. No kind of fire can burn without oxygen!
What historical report tell you The source of heat which started the fire or The fuel that burnt the fire or The supply of oxygen for the fire?
That the supply of oxygen for the fire
Why does flame require air to burn?
fire needs oxygen to burn, because fire is a chemical reaction that needs oxygen. the fire triangle is what fire needs to burn and is this- heat, fuel, and oxygen.
What percentage of oxygen is needed for a fire?
A fire needs approximately 16% oxygen in the air to sustain combustion. This is known as the oxygen concentration level for combustion. If the oxygen level drops below this threshold, the fire will be deprived of oxygen and will be extinguished.
