Depends on what type of combustion it is. If the temperature is above the boiling point (like in a fire) the water will be in gas phase. If it is below it might be liquid.

You are talking about the combustion of of hydrogen and carbon, which is what we burn most of the time (petroleum, coal, wood, etc.). But there are other products of combustion if something else is burning (such as the phosphorus in a match head).

Anyway, the answer to your question is that the water produced by combustion is in gas form, although it may condense shortly after being formed, depending on the temperature and humidity of the air, and the temperature of surrounding objects on which it might condense.
