Best Answer

The product of carbon being burnt is carbon dioxide, when it is burnt in excess of oxygen. Carbon dioxide is colorless and basically odorless, but it can be determined by passing the gases into a solution of limewater. This will become milky, as calcium carbonate would be produced in the presence of carbon dioxide.
