Burning hydrocarbons in the presence of oxygen (O2) produces carbon dioxide (Co2) and water (H2O). If there is too much carbon or too little oxygen present when hydrocarbons areburned, carbon monoxide (CO) may also be emitted. Sometimes unburned hydrocarbons are released into the airduring incomplete combustion.

If incomplete combustion of organic compounds occur then pollution is caused due to it. Organic compound contain huge amount of carbon. In insufficient oxygen or air, these carbon particles do not burn completely and produce soot and dust. Organic compounds contain three main elements: carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen.
Of the mixtures of gases in our atmosphere, nitrogen is in first place in terms of quantity in the atmosphere. When organic compounds are burned at high temperatures, nitrogen dioxide is formed. Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is a brownish gas that is a result of organic compound combustion in vehicle engines.
Often times, organic compounds such as coal, and petroleum contain other elements such as sulfur. When these compounds are burned in oxygen sulfur dioxide (SO2) is produced.
