It was the Apollo 1 spacecraft, the astronauts on board dduring training , were Edward White, Virgil Grissom and Roger Chaffee. They were all killed in the fire.
Well "Apollo 1" burned up on the pad during a practice session with no fuel in the Saturn V rocket, killing the 3 astronauts. The final launch was Apollo 17, so I'd guess 16.
Apollo 1, which was scheduled for launch in February 1967, was the mission that experienced a cabin fire during a pre-flight test, tragically killing astronauts Gus Grissom, Edward White, and Roger B. Chaffee. The mission was intended to be the first crewed flight of the Apollo program and was later renamed to honor the fallen astronauts.
None of the Apollo missions burned up in the atmosphere. All returned safely to Earth. None, although Apollo 13 experienced an explosion in the command module but that was in space, outside the Earth's atmosphere halfway between the Earth and the Moon.
No, Apollo 5 was an unmanned mission and was designed to test the lunar module in Earth orbit. The mission took place in January 1968, and the spacecraft reentered Earth's atmosphere and burned up during reentry.
No one. After the fire of Apollo 1, all missions up to Apollo 6 included were unmanned test flights.

John Swigert, Fred Haise, and James Lovell. There was supposed to be a fourth crew member but he ended up not going on the Apollo 13 mission and instead went on the Apollo 14 mission.
The space mission leading to Apollo 11 were Apollo7, 8, 9, and Apollo10.
The Apollo 13 mission experienced an oxygen tank explosion while en route to the moon in 1970, forcing the crew to abort the mission and return safely to Earth. The explosion occurred in the Service Module, damaging critical systems and putting the crew in a life-threatening situation.
