What else can I help you with?
Do all liquids put out fire?
Obviously not. Many liquids are flammable.
Are combustible liquids more of a fire hazard than flammable liquids?
It is harder to start a combustible liquid buring than to start a flammable liquid burning. In most cases, however, neither type of liquid is "unstable." Both are simply liquids that can burn if ignited. Being "unstable" means that it might detonate or explode.
Why can objects move through liquids but not solids?
Objects can move through liquids because the particles in liquids are loosely packed and can flow past one another. In contrast, the particles in solids are tightly packed and arranged in a fixed structure, making it difficult for objects to move through them.
What properties of liquids make it support heavier objects like a thin film over it?
Liquids have cohesive forces that allow them to stick together and provide surface tension. This surface tension can support lighter objects by creating a thin film that can hold them up. Additionally, the viscosity of liquids helps to stabilize objects placed on their surface by preventing them from sinking.
What is the result of mixing liquids called?
Products or solution. When two objects (solids, liquids or gases) are mixed, the original two are the reactants, where the new objects created are called the products. If the reactants are both liquid, they make up a solution.
How does flammable liquid effect people and objects?
Flammable liquids burn. Once they catch on fire, they can cause other things to burn, including people's clothing, people, and objects in the room.
What temperature does fire start at?
It depends on a lot of factors. For example for flammable liquids, the liquids will not ignite until a certain temperature (referred to as the flash point) is reached.
What objects are liquids?
water
What objects are liquids and solids?
steal sold

Do smoking shelters need to meet fire codes?
Smoking shelters should meet fire codes because if they start on fire, there will need to be some way to put out the fire. So they should be equipped with fire extinguishers, and flame retardant objects.
What objects are absorbent?
Sponges, paper towels, and fabric towels are absorbent objects that can soak up liquids.
What does the b stand for on a fire extinguisher?
flammable liquids

What does the metric system help scientists do?
measure objects, masses. and liquids.
The primary difference between flammable liquids and combustible liquids is?
Flammable catches on fire. Combustible explodes. Boooyah!
