Cyclohexane is an alkane and it burns in air with an orange flame and black sooty smoke. The orange flame indicates incomplete combustion. This means there is a lack of oxygen in the air for all the carbon in the alkane to be converted into carbon dioxide (which is complete combustion) so some carbon and carbon monoxide is formed which is the black sooty smoke (incomplete combustion).
