GHS fire indicates which hazard?

Explanation:
The GHS pictogram with a flame signals a flammable hazard. This symbol denotes substances that can ignite easily in air or under normal conditions, so they must be kept away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials. It covers flammable gases, liquids, and solids (and related categories like pyrophoric or self-heating substances), all of which pose ignition risks. Other hazards have different pictograms—oxidizers are shown with a flame over a circle, poisons with a skull and crossbones, and explosives with an exploding bomb—so the flame icon is specifically about flammability.
