     • The state of fire is plasma (mostly). Science cannot precisely describe the true nature of fire, but to clear up the doubts of inquisitive minds, fire is most similar to plasma! Plasma resembles a gas more than any other state of matter, but it behaves very differently from a gas.

   Is fire a gas or a solid?

   • Combustion resulting in fire can only occur between gases (liquid or solid fuels must first be vaporised for there to be a flame) and that gives us our first clue as to how to categorise fire – it’s a gas, right? Gas, liquid or solid?

   What is fire in chemistry?

   • Fire is the rapid oxidation of a material (the fuel) in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products. [a] At a certain point in the combustion reaction, called the ignition point, flames are produced. The flame is the visible portion of the fire.

   Is fire a liquid or gas?

   • This fact eliminates the slightest possibility of fire being a solid, liquid, or gas. All types of fire gradually die out and cannot continue to exist in their natural state forever, unlike the above. For example, a funeral pyre would eventually die out if it was not constantly furnished with oxygen and flammable material.

   Is fire a gas or a flame?

   • Like a gas, it expands to fill the volume in which it’s contained, whereas a flame does not. But what we can conclude (for now) is that, of the fundamental states of matter, fire is most like a plasma. In fact, some very hot flames do contain plasma – when the energy inside them is sufficient to ionise enough of the air molecules.

   Is fire a chemical reaction?

   • “But fire is something else altogether. It is a chemical reaction that happens in a mixture of gases.” Simply defined, fire is a chemical reaction in a mixture of incandescent gases, typically luminous with intense heat. But candle flames, wood fires, and propane fires aren’t created equal.

   What constitutes a fire?

   • “What constitutes fire depends on the fuel being burned,” says Chen. “The chemistry of each type of fire is different.” They’re similar to the extent that all fires release energy stored in fuels, and if supplied with enough oxygen and enough time, eventually produce carbon dioxide and water. “That’s the end game,” says Chen.

   What we know for sure is that fire is the visible effect of combustion – an exothermic chain reaction requiring the fire triangle: oxygen, heat and some type of fuel.

    Sitting around a campfire, you can feel its heat, smell the woody smoke, and hear it crackle. If you get too close, it burns your eyes and stings your nostrils. You could stare at the bright flames forever as they twist and flicker in endless incarnations… But what exactly are you looking at? Elizabeth Cox illuminates the science behind fire.
