Fire, or flame, is primarily an extremely hot gas, even hot enough to give off light. It is mainly composed of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water vapor. http://www.wa.gov.au/tiac/forum/2003/cleave/page8.htm Fire is a chemical reaction which creates a burst of heat and light. This is called ignition point, and what we see is a flame. When heat changes the state or shape of an objects, we call this combustion. There are three main elements which are required to ignite a flame. Without any of these three elements, it is not possible to start a fire. These three elements are: Oxygen, Fuel and Heat. http://www.wa.gov.au/tiac/forum/2003/cleave/page7.htm">http://www.wa.gov.au/tiac/forum/2003/cleave/page7.htm Dec 07 05, 12:41 AM
