2.2 Billion years ago Photosynthetic bacteria in the ocean began churning out oxygen as a result of photosynthesis. Then, oxygen gas started accumulating in the atmosphere.
The free oxygen in Earth's atmosphere primarily comes from the process of photosynthesis carried out by plants, algae, and certain bacteria. During photosynthesis, these organisms use energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose.Approximately half of Earth's oxygen is produced by marine plants, specifically phytoplankton.

The oxygen in Earth's atmosphere originally comes from the process of photosynthesis carried out by early photosynthetic organisms like cyanobacteria, which released oxygen as a byproduct. Over time, the accumulation of oxygen led to the development of an oxygen-rich atmosphere.
The primitive earth's atmosphere contained mainly water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and small amounts of other gases like methane and ammonia. It did not have free oxygen as it was produced later by photosynthetic organisms. Nitrogen and inert gases like argon were also present in the early atmosphere.
No, sodium nitrate does not burn in an oxygen-free atmosphere because combustion requires oxygen to support the chemical reaction that produces heat and light. Without oxygen, there is no source for the combustion reaction to occur.
It is produced by the photosynthesis of plant life.

Free oxygen
No. Jupiter's atmosphere is mostly hydrogen and helium with no free oxygen.
32% the of the atmosphere is Argon, Oxygen and Other stuff

Many things. Titanium burns well in both oxygen and nitrogen.
