oxygen is what "feeds" fire... the higher the concentration of it the greater the effect

Why iron rust slowly in moist air?
I don't know whether the main question is why iron rustsor why does it rust slowly but i will answer bothiron rusts in air because air contains oxygen and water.and for rusting to occur, you NEED both oxygen and water..why it rusts slowly because , although air has an abundance of oxygen (~30%) water does not (~1%) and that is why it rusts slowly. because there is lesser water in the air to react with the iron and oxygen.

Why wood burns without a flame?
It burns slowly (reaction with oxygen at lower rate) at relatively low temperature (150oC). In a good fire place or a funeral pile temperature has risen and flames will appear, can grow to more than 10 metres high (forest fires!)

Why does the volume of air in the spirometer drop slowly over the first minute?
The person breathes in oxygen and breaths out carbondioxide back into the spirometre. Because the carbondioxide can become a saftey hazard, soda lime is placed in the spirometre to remove the carbondioxide, however the volume of carbondioxide is equal to the volume of oxygen, as the oxygen is not being replace, so removing the carbondioxide removes the oxygen as well, making the spirometre drop.
Is oxygen your health in dead space?
No. There's a glowing bar on the back of your RIG, which displays your current health. It can be upgraded and extended by attaching Power Nodes to the RIG. Oxygen is only used when in a vacuum, in which case it is slowly used up the longer you spend in there. When the oxygen runs out, its game over. However, it is not your health during this time, as you can still die from being attacked and your health bar depleting like you would normally without the air completely running out.
