Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
A hydrocarbon fuel burns completely to produce CO2  and H2O whereas incomplete combustion produces CO, CO2, and H2O . When there is insufficient air or oxygen present, incomplete combustion ensues. While still being created, carbon dioxide is joined by enormous amounts of carbon monoxide and carbon. Soot is the carbon's liberated form. Methane is given out during the burning of coal, natural gas, and oil. Methane emissions also result from livestock and other agricultural practices, land use and by the decay of organic waste in landfills.
