Oxygen is a common component in the process of combustion, where things burn. It acts as an oxidizer, combining with the fuel source to produce heat and light. However, there are other substances that can serve as oxidizers, meaning they can facilitate combustion without the presence of oxygen. For example, some compounds like fluorine or chlorine can act as oxidizers and support the burning of certain materials. In these cases, they provide the necessary chemical reactions to sustain a combustion reaction. It's worth noting that while oxygen is a crucial component for supporting combustion in our atmosphere, there are environments where alternative oxidizers can be present. For instance, in space or on other planets with different atmospheric compositions, substances other than oxygen could potentially support burning. Overall, oxygen is a widely available and abundant oxidizer in our Earth's atmosphere, which is why it's often associated with combustion. However, other substances can also support the process under different conditions.
