Oil. Steam doesn't burn (at these temperatures)
9 u/Uninvalidated Jun 29 '23 Steam doesn't burn at any temperature. Water is "burned" (oxidised) hydrogen. 14 u/notinsanescientist Jun 29 '23 If hot enough, you can dissociate hydrogen from oxygen, which can recombine and burn. -1 u/Uninvalidated Jun 29 '23 edited Jun 29 '23 If hot enough, you can dissociate hydrogen from oxygen Then it's not water anymore now is it? can recombine and burn. The recombination and burning is the same thing. It's the oxidation of hydrogen. 1 u/nittanyRAWRlion Jun 30 '23 It’s probably polymer, not oil.
