While nitrogen is a non-combustible gas that can be used to extinguish fires, it is not entirely accurate to say that without nitrogen in the air, a fire will not burn. Fires require oxygen to burn, and while nitrogen dilutes the oxygen concentration in the air and can help suppress fires, it is not the absence of nitrogen that prevents fires from burning.

Does fire need air or oxygen?

The fire is fueled by oxygen in the air. There is no significant amount of hydrogen gas found in the atmosphere.Does the question relate to a laboratory experiment involving hydrogen gas?

If you burn hydrogen, the fire is being fueled by the hydrogen, not the oxygen, but without O2, the hydrogen would not burn.
