5.10 I can recall the problems associated with incomplete combustion

Properties of Carbon monoxide
It's highly toxic, odorless, and colorless
Explain how carbon monoxide is formed
In regular combustion: fuel + O2 --> CO2 + energy OR fuel + oxygen
but when there is lack of oxygen: fuel + O --> CO + energy
So basically, carbon monoxide forms when there is a lack of oxygen
Why is carbon monoxide poisonous?
Our hemoglobins have a liking for carbon monoxide, so instead of carrying oxygen, it carries carbon monoxide. This causes a lack of oxygen being delivered in our body, which can cause severe illness and eventually, death
