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. The sand acts as an inert material that can absorb some of the heat and prevent the petrol from igniting fully. While the petrol can still ignite and produce some flames, the mixture will not sustain a fire as efficiently as pure petrol would.
