🔍 Key Concepts

• Properties of water as a firefighting agent (cooling, smothering, expansion when turning to steam) • What happens when water turns to steam in terms of volume and heat absorption • How water can remove heat from a fire (cooling the fuel below ignition temperature)

💭 Think About

• When water is applied to a hot surface or fire, what physical change does it undergo, and how does that affect the fire? • Which choice correctly describes what happens to volume and heat when water turns into steam, without adding extra effects that are not really significant? • Think about which option best supports the main firefighting action of water: is it mainly about changing size, absorbing smoke, or absorbing heat and expanding?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option describes water absorbing a large amount of heat during phase change. • Check which answer correctly states that water expands in volume (rather than contracts) when it becomes vapor. • Eliminate any choices that focus on effects that are not primary firefighting advantages, such as smoke absorption or incorrect statements about contraction.
