About this app
Combustion & Extinction is an interactive elementary science learning app about the conditions needed for fire. Explore how fuel, oxygen, and heat above the ignition point can be switched on or off to start or stop burning, then practice choosing ways to extinguish paper, cooking-oil, and gas fires. A challenge mode asks learners to identify missing conditions, select suitable methods, and understand what each method removes.
