How does a fire grow and what happens?

Answer 1

Fire is a very simple term. Contrary to what people tell you, although it is NOT a living thing, it does grow and develop.

Fire needs three things to burn: Fuel (like wood, paper, oil, etc), Heat, and Oxygen. Take away one of those things and the fire will be put out. But if you add those things or the level remains the same, the fire may grow larger and hotter, and it will be harder to put out. As the fire develops (there are three stages to a fire burning but we don't need to get in to those), more and more fuel and oxygen will be taken until there is nothing left.

Answer 2

A fire develops through the combination of three things: oxygen, heat, and fuel. Fire is a chemical process in which oxidation occurs (oxygen atoms combine with hydrogen and carbon to form h2o and co2).

Answer 3

A fire grows through a process called combustion, where heat, fuel, and oxygen combine to sustain the fire. As the fire consumes more fuel and oxygen, it generates heat and releases gases and particles into the atmosphere. If not contained or extinguished, a fire can spread rapidly and cause damage to surrounding objects and structures.
