The unsaturated hydrocarbons are mor tangled up so it's harder for the oxygen to get in and break the bonds. Because of this some large sections of the hydrocarbon floats up before being broken, making the flame sooty.
In a complete combustion reaction the flame is a blue/purple colour.
because the multiple bond makes the combustion of the hydrocarbon harder, and other byproducts may form aside from CO2 and H2O

Saturated hydrocarbons
generally give a clean blue
flame because complete
combustion of these
substances takes place.
In all combustion reactions (other than H2 with O2) CO2(g) and H2O(g) will be produced. CO would NOT be produced, as we are talking about COMPLETE combustion. Why can't the products be in a form of an oxide and a compound gas?
During complete combustion, carbon dioxide and water are formed. If incomplete combustion occurs, carbon monoxide and water are produced.
When the combustion is complete 99 % of polystyrene is transformed in carbon dioxide and water.
In complete combustion, all the reactants will be converted into carbon dioxide and water. In incomplete combustion, some of the reactants will be converted to carbon dioxide, some will become carbon monoxide, and some may not react at all. Quite often incomplete combustion will result in a "sooty" flame.
CO, CO2, H2O and more comlicated structures.
Most of the hydrocarbons used in spirit burners are very aromatic not least because a spirit burner does not allow for complete combustion of longer chained molecules such as petrol or paraffin.If you were to use a smaller chained fuel such as methanol or ethanol there will be more complete combustion and less aromatic waste produced.
The Oxygen fuels the reaction in a fire, oxygen is necessary for combustion. As the reaction takes place hydrocarbons are produced. These gas particles are produced from incomplete combustion of longer chains of hydrocarbons (wood). Heat rises, so do the gas particles as they continue to react (burn). Combusion is considered complete when the hydrocarbon bonds are all broken producing water (hydrogen/oxygen) and carbon dioxide (carbon/oxygen).
Combustion of metals forms metal oxides. Combustion of hydrocarbons, like methane, forms carbon dioxide and water.
No moles of oxygen are produced by complete combustion of propane. Oxygen is CONSUMED, not produced. For combustion of 4 moles of propane, it will use 20 moles of oxygen.
In all combustion reactions (other than H2 with O2) CO2(g) and H2O(g) will be produced. CO would NOT be produced, as we are talking about COMPLETE combustion. Why can't the products be in a form of an oxide and a compound gas?
Complete combustion produces carbon dioxide. Incomplete combustion produces carbon monoxide.

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.
carbon monoxide. CO is a product resulting as the definition of incomplete combustion. complete combustion yields carbon dioxide, CO2.
A non luminous flame is produced when the air valve is opened enough to allow complete combustion of the methane gas.
