WHY CARBON DIOXIDE IS CONSIDERED AS THE BEST FIRE EXTINGUISHER?

The carbon dioxide is also very cold as it comes out of the extinguisher, so it cools the fuel as well. CO2s may be ineffective at extinguishing Class A fires because they may not be able to displace enough oxygen to successfully put the fire out. Class A materials may also smolder and re-ignite.

Answer:

The carbon dioxide considered the best fire extinguisher to put off fires caused by burning of inflammable liquids such as petrol or oil because carbon dioxide stops the influence of oxygen because it decreases the oxygen present in that fire which leads to the fallout of fire.
