How fast is fire?
Limited only by the amount of oxygen available to it.
What is the minimum amount of oxygen needed to sustain fire in the atmosphere?

Why would a candle burn longer in the open other than in a glass jar?
If the glass jar is sealed, there is a limited amount of oxygen within it. Fire uses oxygen to stay alive. Once it uses up the limited amount of oxygen in the glass jar, it can no longer sustain flame. However, in the open, there is a theoretically unlimited amount of oxygen.
What liquid affects fire the most?
A chemical fire would be affected by the amount of hydrogen in the mixture; in the open, oxygen effects the fire the most.
What effects does oxygen have on fire?

The fire will be put out.
What would fire look like without oxygen?
Nothing. Fire consumpts oxygen to light and remain.
Why does fire need air?

There wouldn't be one. A fire needs oxygen in the first place.
Why would firemen be out of a job if there was no oxygen?
A fire needs oxygen to burn.
