==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
[[Incomplete Combustion]] is when a [[fuel]] burns without sufficient [[Oxygen]] to fully [[oxidise]] all the [[atom]]s within the [[compound]].
===About Incomplete Combustion===
: '''Incomplete combustion''' happens when there is not enough [[Oxygen]].
: [[Complete Combustion]] should [[product|produce]] only [[Water]] and [[Carbon Dioxide]].
: '''Incomplete combustion''' leads to the [[product|production]] of [[Soot]] and [[Carbon Monoxide]].
: The following are [[example]]s of '''incomplete combustion''' [[Chemical Reaction|reactions]]:
: [[Methane]] + [[Oxygen]] → [[Soot]] + [[Water]]
: <chem>CH4 + O2 -> C + 2H2O</chem>
: [[Methane]] + [[Oxygen]] → [[Carbon Monoxide]] + [[Water]]
