Joseph Priestley is credited with this discovery.
Oxygen is a necessary ingredient for burning.
Carl Wilhelm Scheele, 1771 - rediscovered by Joseph Priestley, 1774.
oxygen is necessary to keep anything burning...
He discovered that oxygen is present in the burning of matter.
Discovered that a gas, oxygen and a fuel was was essential to the process of burning.
You need a fuel, ignition, oxygen, and heat.
Lavoisier discovered that burning is impossible without oxyge.
Yes, oxygen is necessary when burning nutrients to produce energy.
Antoine Lavoisier discovered that burning is a reaction between oxygen and the combustible material.This reaction is called now oxydation.
Oxygen is the gas that is always used in burning. It is necessary for combustion to occur as it reacts with a fuel source to produce heat and light.
Priestly discovered Oxygen which a major element in combustion or burning
Combustion (or burning) is the reaction between a fuel and any oxidant. So by definition burning requires oxygem, As to why oxygen supports burning because it is very reactive and when any when any chemical is oxidiesed it is an exothermic reaction
