There are two ways of this process:


3C2H2+5O2C+3CO+2CO2+3H2O3C2H2+4O22C+3CO+CO2+3H2O\begin{array}{l} 3 \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{2} + 5 \mathrm{O}_{2} \rightarrow \mathrm{C} + 3 \mathrm{CO} + 2 \mathrm{CO}_{2} + 3 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \\ 3 \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{2} + 4 \mathrm{O}_{2} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{C} + 3 \mathrm{CO} + \mathrm{CO}_{2} + 3 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \\ \end{array}


Incomplete combustion of acetylene and oxygen gives carbon and carbon mono and dioxides, water is one of the products too.
