Solution

The correct option is B carbon dioxide
When a fuel is burnt, the oxygen present in the air reacts with carbon and hydrogen present in the fuel to form carbon dioxide and water vapour. The reaction involved is:
Fuel + Oxygen Carbon dioxide + Water vapour + Heat
Carbon dioxide and water vapour so formed get released into the air.
