26. Identify the three conditions necessary for combustion. To produce fire, 3 components must be present at the same time. They are known as the Fire Triangle. 1.Fuel- is any combustible material that will burn. A. common fuels are gasoline, diesel, wood paper and propane B. most materials will burn if they are made hot eough in the present of oxygen.

27. 2. Heat- simply refers to a type of energy that causes the temperature to rise. Example: If the room temperature changes from 50 degrees to 70 degrees, it is done by using heat. Identify the three conditions necessary for combustion.

28. 3. Oxygen- is a gas in the atmosphere. It is not a fuel, but must be present for fuels to burn. Oxygen is nearly always present except in airtight conditions. This fact is important to remember in fire safety and control. Identify the three conditions necessary for combustion.
