The grease will keep burning but the water will sink below the surface, flash to steam from the heat and the expansion will blow the burning grease out like an explosion.
Just put your hand in it
Grease is an oil. The title refers to the kids who were called "Greasers" because of the large amount of oil they put in their hair.
When stones and grease are present in water, they can form a substance known as "scum." Scum is a layer of impurities that float on the surface of the water due to their differing densities. The stones and grease do not mix with the water but instead combine to create this film-like layer, which can be unsightly and potentially harmful to aquatic ecosystems.

I'm guessing it's because wax melts with heat i.e. fire and so allows a path for water to exit the sprinkler and put out the fire.
To extinguish a grease fire, you should put a lid on the pan or use a fire extinguisher specifically designed for grease fires. Never use water on a grease fire as it can cause the fire to spread.
Well the worst way to put out a GREASE fire is to put water on it.
Yes, a fire extinguisher works on a grease fire. What you have to avoid with grease fires is throwing water on them, because the burning grease will just float on the water and will be splashed around as the water heats and vaporizes, spreading the fire, rather than being put out. But the carbon dioxide based fire extinguisher doesn't have that problem.
Never put water on a grease fire as it can cause the fire to spread and become more dangerous.
water
You never use water to put out a fat fire, because the pouring water on burning grease or oil will not extinguish the fire. It will only cause the burning oil to splash, spreading the grease fire around.
Grease & Electrical
NO, use salt! Unless its a grease fire only use water as a last resort (ie you have no salt and cant blow it out) NEVER USE WATER ON A GREASE FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Because you dont put water on a oil fire or a explosion will happen. This includes a grease fire... Dont put it out with water... If you put a fire blanket over it... It will put it out the safe way E.G. Smuther it.
To put out a grease fire in an oven, turn off the heat and keep the oven door closed to cut off the oxygen supply. Do not open the door until the fire is completely out and the oven has cooled down. Never use water to extinguish a grease fire as it can cause the fire to spread.
if you ge grease on or near a fire and it could ignite. you can't put a grease fire out with water. but baking soda works
No, putting flour on a grease fire can actually make it worse because flour is flammable. It is recommended to use a fire extinguisher or baking soda to put out a grease fire.
