Question

how do you explain the role of oxygen in combustion process

Answer 1

It depends on what you burn. Generally the O=O double bond release lots of heat to sustain a healthy combustion. You also need O to form more stable products to achieve clean combustion. In fact, if you can burn oxygen instead of air, you can save a lot of trouble associated with pollution. Lots of people didn’t (and still haven’t) realize that CO2 is already the product of clean combustion. What you don’t want is CO or NO or other HCs that are intermediates.

Answer 2

heya here is ur answer :----

Combustion is the combination of fuel, an oxidizer, and an input energy source such as heat (i.e. spark plug) as shown by the combustion triangle. In the case of many reactions such as hydrocarbon fuels, this oxidizer would be oxygen (in most cases in the form of air), which requires a low input energy to create a chemical reaction.
