Combustion reactions always involve molecular oxygen O2. Anytime anything burns (in the usual sense), it is a combustion reaction. Combustion reactions are almost always exothermic (i.e., they give off heat). For example: When wood burns, it must do so in the presence of O2 and a lot of heat is produced.
