Pure energy. Fire is the resultant manifestation of a chemical reaction between a fuel [there are many different kinds] and Oxygen [usually in the air, but also if in pure form]. As a result of the chemical reaction, a great deal of energy is released in the form of heat and light. The visible portion of the "flames" is the result of glowing particles [carbon] which have not yet been exposed to, and mixed with , enough Oxygen to be at the right mixture [percentage of fuel and oxygen capable of combustion] to combust [burn]. If the perfect [stoichometric] mixture, for example, of pure Carbon and pure Oxygen are burned, the final products of combustion are light, heat, and Carbon Dioxide. Or if the stoichometric mixture is pure natural gas [Methane] and pure Oxygen, then the the products of combustion would be light, heat, Carbon Dioxide, and water vapor. All of our air polluton [from burning of fuels] results from the use of fuels which are contaminated with other elements and compounds.
