Answer 1

When you give display: flex to the wrap, by default the elements a and b are flexed in a line.

Now another default of a flexbox child is the min-width property is auto by default and so the elements a and b takes a min-width corresponding to its content. So set min-width: 0 and things go back to normal - see demo below:

.wrap {
  overflow-wrap: break-word;
  display: flex;
}

.b {
  min-width: 0; /* ADDED */
}

<div class="wrap">
  <div class="a">
    first div
  </div>
  <div class="b">
