Best Answer

If a hydrocarbon is completely burned, the products are water vapor and carbon dioxide. Various partial combustion products are often produced, however. These include carbon monoxide, smoke, and sometimes other forms of hydrocarbons.

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.
