Fire extinguishers that spray carbon dioxide on the fire, work very effectively because it forms a blanket around the burning ma

terial. But these carbon dioxide extinguishers cannot be used for wood fires. Why?
a. The carbon dioxide blanket itself acts as a fuel and starts burning along with the wood.

b. The extinguished wood can retain enough heat inside the carbon dioxide blanket to re-ignite when the gas disappears.

c. In the presence of carbon dioxide from the extinguisher, the burning wood reacts with oxygen to release heat and make the fire worse.

d. Carbon dioxide reacts with wood to give carbon and oxygen; the oxygen makes the fire worse and the carbon burns along with the wood.

Was the relationship among temperature,heat,and thermal energy?
marysya [2.9K]
When a substance is hotter it has more energy then a substance that is cooler thermal energy is found in the state for example:gas has more energy in the gas state then the solid state,All molecules contain some amount of kinetic energy, that is to say, they have some intrinsic motion. ... Thus, the heat of an object is the total energy of all the molecular motion inside that object. Temperature, on the other hand, is a measure of the average heat or thermal energy of the molecules in a substance.
