Answer is: product of chemical reaction would be carbon dioxide.
Balanced chemical reaction: 2CO(g) + O₂(g) → 2CO2(g).
There are same number of atoms of on both side of balanced chemical reaction: four oxygen atoms and two carbon atoms.
Carbon change oxidation number from +2 to +4 and oxygen from 0 to -2.
