What is combustion?
It is commonly known as burning or involves oxygen combining with another substance in the presence of heat and releases energy in the form of heat and light
What are complete combustion?
Hydrocarbons react with sufficient oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapour and flame turns blue
What is a incomplete combustion?
Hydrocarbons involves a reaction with insufficient oxygen
