The commonest reaction is photosynthesis, which is how green plants use the Sun's energy to separate carbon from oxygen in carbon dioxide. This is an important part of the Carbon Cycle.

When free carbon and oxygen are re-combined to produce heat in a burning process, the energy is given off as heat and the product is carbon dioxide.
