Answer:
When carbon burns completely excess of air (oxygen) it forms carbon dioxide. But if there is incomplete combustion, carbon monoxide is formed.
When the air or oxygen supply is restricted, incomplete combustion to carbon monoxide, CO, occurs. ... The resulting gas is called producer gas and is a mixture of carbon monoxide (25%), carbon dioxide (4%), nitrogen (70%), and traces of hydrogen (H2), methane (CH4), and oxygen (O2).
Carbon and oxygen can combine to form two gases. When combustion of carbon is complete, i.e. in the presence of plenty of air, the product is mainly carbon dioxide .
