Best Answer

1. Anything that is already burnt will not burn.

2. Inert gases (Helium, Neon etc).

3. Oxygen itself

Even diamonds will burn if fire is hot enough. Water, for instance, is burnt hydrogen. So it never burns. This question can be asked technically as " what cannot be oxidised".

Yes, there are materials that are flame resistant and do not burn. However, most of these materials have specific chemicals applied to them.

Pretty much any material will burn, unless it is metal. Stone wont really burn either. Textiles will plants and skin will burn along with pretty much everything else.

Material that burns easily and is used to start a fire?

A chemical property describing something that burns or catches on fire easily is flammable.


Are cigarette ashes flammable?

No, because flammable means "capable of being easily ignited and of burning quickly", and the ashes are the remnant of material which has already been burnt upand generally cannot burn any further because the flammable material has already oxidized.Of course, the ashes can still be dangerous if they're hot, and can cause other material to catch fire, but that's because the ashes are hot, and the other material is flammable and that other material can catch fire if the ashes are hot enough, not because the ashes themselves are flammable.However, if some flammable material, like cloth, is heated without being in the presence of air, as in a closed container, the hydrogen will be split from the material and vented away as a gas, leaving a matrix of carbon, and the remaining "char cloth" can be used as tinder in a survival kit to easily catch fire from sparks from a fire starter or from a coal produced by friction.


Does oxygen catch fire easily?

No. Oxygen is not flammable. Rather, it supports the combustion of flammable materials. Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and some flammable material. Higher concentrations of oxygen will cause a fire to burn hotter and faster.
