                  1. These fuels are all Hydrocarbons
                  2. We burn these fuels in Oxygen from the air to release heat energy
                    1. In an unlimited supply of oxygen the hydrocarbon will be totally oxidised
                      1. When burnt, they release carbon dioxide and water.
                        1. In a limited supply of oxygen, carbon (soot) and carbon monoxide (toxic gas) can be produced
