A combustion reaction is a reaction in which a substance reacts with oxygen gas, releasing energy in the form of light and heat. Combustion reactions must involve O2 as one reactant. The combustion of hydrogen gas produces water vapor.

A combustion reaction is when a fuel, usually a hydrocarbon, reacts with excess oxygen to form carbon dioxide gas and water vapor.
