Answer 2

Water cannot be used to extinguish the fire of Petrol and Electricity.

Reason:

1. For petroleum:

As water is heavier than petrol, therefore, slips down permitting the petrol to rise to the surface and continue to burn. Besides, the existing temperature is so high that the water poured on the fire evaporates even before it can extinguisher the fire. Thus the petrol fire cannot be extinguished by water.

2. For Electricity:

You should never throw water on an electrical fire because water conducts electricity and you could be electrocuted.
