What do you get when you burn a hydrocarbon with oxygen?

Generally, the hydrocarbon undergoes a combustion reaction, forming water and carbon dioxide. The water formed may be in the form of water vapour. But in the case where oxygen is limited, the hydrocarbon may under incomplete combustion, forming a gaseous mixture of water, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and hydrogen.A hydrocarbon reacting with oxygen means burning the hydrocarbon. When hydrocarbons are burned, the oxides of the compound elements, such as CO2,H2O are formed. If the hydrocarbon contain elements like Nitrogen, sulfur, etc oxides of them can be formed.

How nitrogen and hydrogen is obtained?

Nitrogen is generally obtained by a industrial plant that takes in air from the atmosphere, and separates it from the oxygen. Hydrogen is generally obtained from an industrial plant that takes in a hydrocarbon and water and splits it from the hydrocarbon and water. It makes a byproduct of CO2. It may be obtained from water alone by passing an electrical current through water and splitting it from the oxygen. This is a more well known method, but very uncommon.
