Why does benzene produce a sootier flame than either cyclohexane or cyclohexene?

It is because the cyclohexene is an unsaturated compound. It contain one or more carbon-carbon double bond in a ring structure and this bonding still can be reduced by adding hydrogen atoms (combustion process). Thus,it will more reactive compare to cyclohexane, a saturated compound that all the carbon atoms within it have been bond with hydrogen atoms. As the result, the cyclohexene will produces a sootier flame than cyclohexane.
