ANSWER...

Water cannot be used as fire extinguisher to put out burning oils like petrol, they are much lighter than water and the water vaporizes in to the stream which expands causing it to spit out the oil, making the flame much bigger.

Explanation:

It simply cannot oxidize any further so it will not “burn”. This smothers the fire. ... Of course this is why water doesn't work on a grease fire. Since grease floats on water, the water cannot block the fuel (grease) from the oxidizer (air).
