Answer 2

$\huge {\green {\sf {\underline {\underline{Answer}}}:-}}$

A chemical process in which a substance burns in oxygen (of air) to give off heat and light (which may or may not be produced) is called combustion. Burning of magnesium and charcoal are examples of combustion. Since, both give heat and light on burning. Thus, magnesium and charcoal are combustible in nature. It is not essential that light must be produced in combustion.
