What happens to the atoms of the fuel As it burns?

Answer:

More atoms released from the fuel combine with nearby oxygen. That releases more energy, which releases more atoms. This heats the oxygen — and so on. The orange and yellow colors in a flame appear when extra, free-floating carbon atoms get hot and begin to glow.
