Question

Sourav was heating oil to fry potato chips. The cooking oil all of a sudden caught fire. He took water to pour on the fire to extinguish it. But meanwhile his mother came and switched off the gas and covered the wok completely with a plate. What value of sourav and sourav's mother are shown here ?

Answer 1

Answer:

No. Because water is not suitable for fires involving oil.

Manu should have switched off the flame of the burner and put a lid on the frying pan. By doing this the contact between fuel and oxygen is cut off and the flame will go off.

plz mark me brainliest.

Answer 2

The correct response to the fire event and the values of Saurav and his mother is described below:

• Saurav's mother knows what to do in the event of a kitchen fire.
• When a material or compound catches fire (heated oil in this example), the combustion supporting gas, oxygen supply should be immediately cut off.
• Because water has a higher density than oil, when Saurav pours water, it settles towards the bottom of the oil. It will not prevent oil from receiving oxygen.
• Saurav's mother turns off the gas and covers the pan entirely with a plate. This cuts off the oxygen supply to the heating oil, causing the fire to get off.

The values exhibited by Saurav is:

• Saurav: As a toddler, he appears to be unaware of basic scientific principles which he should be taught.
• Saurav's mother: She is quite aware of fundamental scientific concepts around her and is also quick responsive in emergency situations.
