Answer:

false

carbon dioxide is used to extinguish fire

Answer 2

Given statement is false

• CO2 is a gas that exists in the atmosphere (CO2)
• Carbon dioxide is best used to put out fires in the B and C categories. Carbon dioxide is the sole extinguishing gas utilized in fire extinguishers and extinguishing devices because of its physical qualities.
• Carbon dioxide is stored liquid in high-pressure steel cylinders or chilled to 20 degrees Celsius in massive low-pressure containers in stationary fire suppression systems.
• Larger amounts of extinguishing agent can be kept efficiently if it is stored as a liquid.
• Because large concentrations of carbon dioxide are damaging to one's health, employers' insurance companies need special precautions if a limit value of more than 5% volume is exceeded.
