We need magnesium
-
Element MGNM would burn very hot, so hot that it's flames would break water into H2 and O2 instead of just boiling the water. The resulting H2 and O2 would then ignite and make the fire even hotter (this is in fact the reason that firefighters in real life can't use water to put out a magnesium fire). And CO2 would turn into coal (carbon) and O2 (oxygen) upon being heated by a magnesium flame (this is in fact the reason that firefighters in real life can't use a CO2 fire extinguisher to put out a magnesium fire).
Then you'd need another element TDFE (Type D Fire Extinguisher) to put out the magnesium fire (this is indeed how real life magnesioum fires are put out).
Now while this is based on reality, realism shouldn't be the determining factor in TPT. Instead, usefulness in TPT simulations should be.
And I have a feeling that these 2 elements MGNM and TDFE also could indeed come in very hand in TPT as some really useful elements. -
I could see the both happening but TDFE would need a different name, and I could also see both having uses, like the Extinguisher could be used with some PCLN to make a fire extinguisher system in a building

Magnesium has been suggested before, but actually this isn't a bad idea. You've added realistic options that have some nice uses.
" MAGN", I'll call it, can seperate CO2 into COAL and O2, which can also seperate WATR into H2 and O2, and it also is hard to put out.
Type D fire extinguisher that extinguishes magnesium fires is basically Sodium Chloride, so it's name could be SDCL instead.
One question, however, Would SDCL/TDFE be able to put other fires as well? -
MAGN would be very similar to Ribium. Though we do need a very hot burning explosive. Maybe ill make it in my mod since i haven't made anything new in a while.

Sodium Chloride is Table salt. To be precise, a salt is defined as an ionic compound. -

Most certainly is. Most salts have the same sort of properties anyway. High Melting points. When diluted or molten can conduct due to free ions. Crystalline structures.
