Burning will be more agressive and faster. Also self-ignition occurs at a lower temperatures when there is more O2 available.

What is the input of plants?
Plants are very important to our environment. Plants absorb nitrogen and carbon dioxide and turn it into oxygen, this causes an oxygen rich environment. Plants are wonderful and essential for Earth's atmosphere to survive.
How many elements are inh2o?
2 and they are hydrogen and oxygen H20 means their are 2 hydrogen atoms, and 1 oxygen atom
What is needed to start a fire?
Fuel, Oxygen and a heat source. Fuel, Oxygen and heat are everywhere why is the whole earth not on fire? because it is not Heat but a source of ignition that is needed.
How does EPO improve athletic performance?
Epo improves athletic performance by, releasing when oxygen is low, epo stimulates the bone marrow to produce more red blood cells, therefore increasing oxygen supply.
What type of rock is iron ore?
Iron ore is a chemical sedimentary rock. Iron ore was formed when the first plants capable of photosynthesis appeared. The water that covered the earth was rich in dissolved iron but contained almost no oxygen. Once the plants started emitting the oxygen, it combined with the dissolved iron and created iron oxides which deposited in great abundance on the sea floor and over billions of years became the rich hematite, magnatite, taconite, limonite and siderite iron ores. Iron ore is typically found in bands with alternating bands of silica, shale and/or chert. It is believed the bands were created due to seasonal changes that affected the organisims. These rocks are some of the oldest found on earth.
How does nitrogen dilute oxygen?
nitrogen is used in dilution of activity of which gas
Does nitrogen dilute the oxygen in Earth's atmosphere?
yes
How will burning be affected if nitrogen is not in air to act as a diluent for oxygen?
Nitrogen being diluent for the gases in our atmosphere reduces the combustion process as it dilutes the oxygen in the atmosphere, otherwise every combustion process will be very rapid and will start with a bang. :)
Is oxygen free nitrogen pressure affected by temperature?
Assuming you are talking about oxygen gas and nitrogen gas the answer is yes. Each and every gas is affected by temperature.
Chemical formula of nitrogen monoxide?
The chemical formula for nitrogen monoxide is NO. It consists of one nitrogen and one oxygen atom per molecule of nitrogen monoxide.
Why there are nitrogen bombs and nitro boosters if oxygen helps in burning?
Because chemical other than oxygen also boost burning rates.
What is the word equation for burning ammonia?
ammonia + oxygen --> nitrogen monoxide + water
Why does magnesium go out immedely in nitrogen?
Burning of magnesium (or anything else) requires continuing combination with oxygen. If a burning piece of magnesium is transferred to an atmosphere of nitrogen, no additional magnesium can react with oxygen because none is available for reaction.
Why did god made nitrogen more abundant than oxygen?
oxygen is used by human and animals for respiration but nitrogen do not. for consuming nitrogen plants need nitrogen fixation thus occurs on low scale on other hand oxygen is directly used so its cunsumbtion is more then nitrogen. another important point is that oxygen is used in burning, formation of water etc thus means ratio of cunsumbtion of oxygen is more then nitrogen ,if there was more oxygen then it would lead to a blast every time there was a spark
What is formed when nitrogen combines with oxygen when burning fossil fuels?
Various nitric oxides are formed.
Why is nitrogen gas more than oxygen gas in the air?
oxygen is used by human and animals for respiration bt nitrogen do not. for consuming nitrogen plants need nitrogen fixation ths occurs on low scale on other hand oxygen is directly used so its cunsumbtion is more then nitrogen. another important point is that oxygen is used in burning, formation of water etc ths means ratio of cunsumbtion of oxygen is mor then nitrogen
What three natural disasters which affected?
atoms oxygen and nitrogen any thats all there is haha
