Carbon most commonly enters the air as a gas: carbon dioxide, volatile organic compounds, or carbon monoxide, but it can also exist in the air as a solid (soot) for long periods of time.

Carbon is an element in a solid form. When it released in air, it remains in the same form. If it is burnt in air then it released carbon dioxide & carbon mono oxide.
