There are two substances refered to as oxygen:
1. Oxygen (Element)
Because Oxygen (O) is an element nothing reacts to create it. Theoretically 2 Beryllium (Be) atoms could be fused through nuclear fusion to create 1 atom of Oxygen but this is NOT a reaction.
2. Oxygen (Air)
The air we depend on to live is sometimes referred to as oxygen. Though Oxygen (O) the element is a main component it is not the only one. The air we breath has many other elements in it (i.e. Nitrogen, Carbon, Sulfur, Hydrogen). The component of air which is essential to life is called dioxygen (O2). This substance, also called oxygen, is created when 2 atoms of the element Oxygen react and form a double covalent bond.
Hope this helps!

Will iron react with oxygen to produce rust?
Iron will react with water and oxygen to produce rust. Essentially water has oxygen atoms in it so as long as iron is in contact with water, it will rust.
Does oxygen produce energy under combustion?
Oxygen can react with other elements and release energy.

638
How does silicon react with oxygen?
Silicon and oxygen combine to produce silicon dioxide, SiO2, which is found in nature as quartz or sand.
