Why does dense wood burn better?
Depending on what you mean by "better", it doesn't burn better. It might burn longer but it is much harder to ignite, and does not burn as hot as less-dense wood.
Will putting wet wood on a bed of coals in a wood stove create creosote in chimney?
Creosote is not created- it is naturally in the wood. A "cool" burn lets the creoste present in the smoke condense on the walls of the chimney. With a hot burn, the flue gasses are hot enough that less is deposited on the chimney. Wet wood gives a cooler burn.

What happens when you start a fire with a moist wood?
Trying to start a fire with damp wood is very difficult. When I backpack I always carry some tinder (dry shavings) to start a fire. Wet wood will not burn unless the fire is hot enough to evaporate the water that is in the wood. You can burn damp wood on an already burning fire but it will not burn as hot. Wet wood tends to smoke a lot and may go out on a small fire that does not have a good coal base. I have had to use damp wood to start a fire before but I had to shave down the wood until I found dry wood inside. Once you get a small fire started gradually add wood until you can get a hot fire. Too much wet wood at once can put out a fire. Not a good thing when you are cold and wet. Be patient.
What wood is burnable?
All wood can be burned. Wood is largely cellulose, and cellulose is combustible. Sap, tar, or pitch in wood will also burn. Certainly we can treat wood to minimize its combustion potential, but all wood can be burned in a hot enough fire.
