which is 1 Silicon atom and 2 Oxygen atoms bonded together.barbeque etc and the sand will be fine when your done.when a lightning bolt strikes sand for instance,they form things called Fulgurites.these occur at temperatures of 1800°C and above. .......
Haha. I think of the weirdest things.

NO, sand cannot be set on fire,
its made of silica, which is Silicon Dioxide.
which is 1 Silicon atom and 2 Oxygen atoms bonded together.

you can sit a fire on sand as a base for a bonfire or
barbeque etc and the sand will be fine when your done.

when a lightning bolt strikes sand for instance,
they form things called Fulgurite's.
these occur at temperatures of 1800°C and above. . .

so if you set a hot enough fire on top of sand the quartz
would melt and fuse together, but wouldnt burn or have flames of its own.

with enough lighter fluid you can make almost anything light on fire.

No, it melts.
