Question

5. We cannot use water to extinguish fire caused
by petrol. Why? What measure should we take
to extinguish such a fire?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sand Should be used in Such Situations

Answer 2

Answer:

Water being heavier than petrol slips down permitting the petrol to rise to the surface and continue to burn. Also, the existing temperature is so high that most of the water poured on the fire evaporates even before it can extinguish the fire.
