Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Dry chemical powder can extinguish any type of fire, whether it is a common Class A fire (ordinary combustibles), Class B fire (flammable liquids and gases), or Class C fire (electrical equipment). Water may only be effective on Class A fires, while carbon dioxide and nitrogen may not have the ability to fully extinguish all types of fires.
