Mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen

Water gas is a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen (not water). It is produced when steam is passed over red-hot coke (carbon). Water gas is so named because water (steam) is a source for its production. Both CO and H2 are inflammable gases, and so water gas is used as a fuel.
