Answer:
Carbon dioxide extinguishes work by displacing oxygen, or taking away the oxygen element of the fire triangle. The carbon dioxide is also very cold as it comes out of the extinguisher, so it cools the fuel as well.

Answer:
Carbon dioxide gas is a non-ignitable gas and quenches the fire in two different ways:
1. It is heavier than oxygen and, it covers the fire completely and cuts off the contact between oxygen and fuel.
2. In chambers, CO2 is kept in the fluid structure. When discharged, it extends immensely. This cuts down the temperature of the fuel, which helps in controlling the fire.
