In pure oxygen substances burn much faster than in air and the reaction of elements with oxygen results in oxides. In this experiment metals (such as zinc) and non-metals (such as charcoal) are heated in air and in pure oxygen. So Students find out that pure oxygen promotes combustion very strongly and also some non-combustible materials such as metals burn in pure oxygen.
