Examples of flammable solids include wood, paper, textiles, and certain metals such as magnesium. These materials can easily catch fire and sustain combustion. Proper handling and storage are essential to prevent accidents involving flammable solids.
No, americium itself is not flammable. However, when combined with other flammable materials, it could potentially ignite a fire.
Solid refers to a state of matter characterized by particles that are closely packed together and have a fixed shape and volume. Solids have a definite geometric shape and their particles vibrate in place. Some examples of solids include metals, wood, and ice.
Inorganic solids are materials that do not contain carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds in their structure. They are typically formed by chemical elements other than carbon and typically have a crystalline structure. Examples of inorganic solids include metals, ceramics, and minerals.
No, bismuth is not flammable as it is a non-combustible element.
Ethylene oxide is flammable. It can react with oxygen and ignite, posing a fire hazard.
