Combustion - The reaction of oxygen with a substance(fuel) that results in the release of carbon dioxide, heat and light is called combustion.

$\mathrm{Fuel}\left(\mathrm{s}\right)/\left(\mathrm{l}\right)/\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+\mathrm{Oxygen}\left(\mathrm{g}\right)\to \mathrm{Carbon}\mathrm{dioxide}\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+\mathrm{Heat}+\mathrm{Light}$

Oxygen gas is essential for the process of combustion.
