Why does petrol catches fire easily?
Petrol catches fire easily because it is a highly flammable liquid that evaporates quickly at room temperature, creating a mixture of vapor and air that is easily ignitable. Additionally, petrol has a low flash point, which is the temperature at which it can produce enough vapor to ignite when exposed to a flame. These factors make petrol highly flammable and pose a fire risk.

Will petrol mixed in sand burn?
Yes, petrol mixed with sand can burn, but the effectiveness of the combustion will be significantly reduced compared to burning petrol in its liquid form.

While the petrol can still ignite and produce some flames, the mixture will not sustain a fire as efficiently as pure petrol would.
