Yes, pure oxygen can make things burn faster because it provides more oxygen molecules for combustion to occur. This increased availability of oxygen accelerates the chemical reaction, resulting in a faster and more intense burning process.
Creating an "oxygen bomb" is extremely dangerous and can lead to explosions, fires, and severe injuries. Oxygen supports combustion, so if overpressurized oxygen is confined and ignited, it can create a powerful explosion. It is strongly advised to never attempt to create an oxygen bomb due to the high risk of harm.
Metals burn more brightly in oxygen than in air because oxygen is a more efficient oxidizing agent than the oxygen present in air. The higher concentration and purity of oxygen facilitate a more rapid and intense combustion reaction with the metal, leading to a brighter flame.
Nothing can make oxygen explode! A faulty oxygen cylinder can explode, but that's not the fault of oxygen, any gas under pressure would cause a faulty cylinder to explode, but that happens without a spark or match! Oxygen is the stuff that supports combustion, that is, makes other things burn. And if it makes something burn really really quickly, that will look like an explosion. So if you mix oxygen and hydrogen together and add a spark there is an almighty bang - the hydrogen exploded! So if you smoke a cigarette in pure oxygen, the cigarette will have a very large flame - the cigarette will appear to explode! If you generate a spark in pure oxygen ALONE, you may detect a 'bleach' like smell which is ozone (oxygen is O2, ozone is O3). But there is no explosion! If the spark is a piece of hot metal (like off an emery wheel), the sparks will be brighter and 'die' quicker, but .... sorry .... no explosions! Summary and bottom line - oxygen does not burn, things put in oxygen burn. Oxygen does not explode, faulty oxygen bottles will explode.
No. Oxygen itself is not flammable, but it is necessary for fire. Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and a flammable substance. Fire is possible on Earth because ordinary air is 21% oxygen. Pure oxygen is considered a fire hazard because higher concentrations of oxygen will make it easier for a fire to ignite and will allow it to burn hotter and faster than normal.
They get brighter because fire uses oxygen to burn. Fire needs oxygen heat and fuel. Without any of these you will have no fire. So blowing more oxygen into a fire will make it stronger.
Oxygen. Fuels need that to burn.
Oxygen gas would make a burning splint burn more brightly. This is because oxygen helps fuel combustion by providing more oxygen molecules for the burning process.
Smoking is prohibited where oxygen is stored or used. Oxygen itself is not flammable, but it will make things that ARE flammable burn very violently.
That is the element, "Oxygen".
Yes, pure oxygen can make things burn faster because it provides more oxygen molecules for combustion to occur. This increased availability of oxygen accelerates the chemical reaction, resulting in a faster and more intense burning process.
The three things needed to make a fire burn, what is called the Fire Triangle, are 1] oxygen 2] heat 3] fuel
If you want to be really specific, you can have a flame using other things. For example, a jet of hydrogen will burn in an atmosphere of chlorine. You get hydrogen chloride then. But if you burn the hydrogen in oxygen you get water. These examples demonstrate that burning is a chemical reaction and a great many things will combine with oxygen and in many cases small particles of white/red hot material are given off. This is a flame.
Burn the element in oxygen and you get the oxide
To make something burn, you need fuel (such as paper or wood), oxygen (from the air), and heat (a source of ignition like a match or a spark). These three components make up the fire triangle, and without any one of them, combustion cannot occur.
Water. You can burn oxygen and you can burn hydrogen but you can't burn water.
Oxygen itself does not cause something to burn, but it is necessary for combustion to occur. When oxygen is present, it allows fuel to react with heat, resulting in a chemical reaction that releases energy in the form of heat and light.
