Answer:

Ideally, extinguish the flames with a glass watch or beaker.

Explanation:

When you cover the distillation equipment with a watch glass or beaker, you reduce the oxygen content and it is completely eliminated thanks to the fire itself that consumes it. Once there is no more oxygen the fire is extinguished and it should take no more than 2 or 3 seconds to occur this situation

It is the easiest and most careful way to extinguish the fire during the Grignard reaction

What is the most appropriate unit of astronomical distance to represent the distance between an earth an orbiting space station
Reil [10]

One Astronomical Unit = Average distance between sun and earth which is equal to 149.6 million kilometers. Ping me if you have any doubt.
