Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -What happens if you add water to a grease fire? Even a small amount of water dropped into a pan or deep fryer filled with burning oil will sink to the bottom, become superheated and erupt. According to the Scientific American, the reason oils do not mix with water is related to their properties.
Detailed explanation-2: -Do Not Use ANYTHING Other than Baking Soda-Ingredients like flour or sugar can make the fire much worse and can actually cause a small explosion. Only baking soda can help put out a grease fire.
Detailed explanation-3: -Thin layers of oil on water cannot be burned. So in order to ignite and sustain the burning of oil spills, the oil needs to be confined.
