can someone give a diagram of the life of a particle or particles going through the process of combustion?

Question

i want to know the path of a particle as it burns. it should show why/when they become oxidized, when it turns into flame or photons and when does it end up being a particle of smoke. Obviously, you can't draw in your answer but a detailed description would be great.
Thanks
