Solution
Carbon monoxide:
Carbon monoxide is a colorless and odorless gas that is formed by the incomplete combustion of the fuel.
It is a compound that replaces the oxygen which is present in the blood cell so, the increase in a high amount of carbon monoxide in the body leads to serious tissue damage.
This leads to dizziness, confusion, unconsciousness, and even death.
