Question

If nitrogen does not support combustion then why we not use it in fire extinguishers? I don't want your bookish or copied answer.. make it understand to me in easy language ​

Answer 1

Answer: Hi friend i hope this is simple and understandable.

Explanation:Generally a fire extinguisher does not have just nitrogen. If you have a gas extinguisher it is probably CO2. Nitrogen is one of the gases, along with helium, halon and other gases, that is used to pressurize the extinguisher. So let’s throw some numbers on here. Let’s use a nominal Oxygen concentration of 20.9% and Nitrogen of 78%. Most of the rest is argon and then a bunch of other gases under 0.1% each.
