The composition of smoke depends on the nature of the burning fuel and the conditions of combustion, for example, when paper/wood is burned, the smoke you see is those volatile hydrocarbons evaporating from the wood.
Combustion causes things within the fuel, or object being burned, to evaporate - this is smoke.
