  • The rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process.
    fire
  • chemical process of combustion, releasing heat. light, and various reaction products.
    fire
  • Another term for fire
    combustion
  • the visible portion of the fire
    flame
  • combustion reaction called the
    ignition point
  • uses of fire (4)
    cooking, light, warmth, heat/forging
  • referes to any condiotion or situation that has the potential to start a fire or increase the risk of ire occurance
    fire hazard
  • a chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidizing agent
    combustion
  • what form of energy is release in combustion
    heat and light
  • combustion is a chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidizing agent that is also called ----
    burning
  • ingredents of combustion
    oxygen, heat, and fuel
  • three branches of the govenrnment
    legislative, executive, judicial
  • another term for fire triangle
    combustion triangle
  • earth's atmosphere consist of ----
    21% oxygen
  • refers to the material that is capable o burning
    fuel
  • is the energy that raises the temperature of the fuel
    heat
  • one of the basic elements
    fire
  • sacred substance that gives life or power

    fire
  • fire is a ----
    oxidation process
  • observing a process
    chemical reaction
  • types of fire
    fire triangle, fire tetrahedron, chemical chain reaction
  • fire can be --
    human made, mismanagement, natural hazards
  • reaction between 2 elements
    tetrahedron
  • natural hazards ex.
    earthquake, volcanic eruption, drought, high temperature
  • human made conditions
    transportation accident, chemical explosion, faulty electrical connections
  • mismanagement ---
    negligence, irresponsible handling of fire
  • stages of fire
    incipient, growth, fully developed, decay
  • fuel, oxygen, and heat join together in a sustained chemical reaction. a fire extinguisher can control the fire.

    ignition or incipient
  • With the initial flame as a heat source, additional fuel ignites. Convection and radiation ignite more surfaces. The size of the fire increases and the plume reaches the ceiling.
    growth
  • Fire has spread over much if not all the available fuel; temperatures reach their peak, resulting in heat damage. Oxygen is consumed rapidly.
    fully developed
  • The fire consumes available fuel, temperature decreases, the fire gets less intense.
    decay or burnout
  • classes of fire
    a,b,c,d,k classes
  • class a
    wood, cloth paper, rubber, plastic
  • class b
    flammable liquids and gases
  • class c
    electrical equipment
  • class d
    magnesium, titanium, zirconium, sodium, lithium, potassium
  • class k
    cooking appliances and vegetable or animal oils and fat
  • unlawfully act of intentionally burning something
    arson
  • management of fire hazards is best done through----
    disaster risk reduction management.
