Why is wood burning chemical energy?
how chemical energy produce in firewood useful
What causes wood and gas to give off heat when they're burned?
When wood or gas is burned, heat is produced due to the process of combustion. Combustion is a chemical reaction that takes place between the fuel (wood or gas) and oxygen in the presence of heat, resulting in the release of energy in the form of heat and light. The fuel undergoes oxidation, breaking down into simpler molecules and releasing heat energy in the process.
Would wood be useful in conducting heat?
Wood "holds" heat and releases it when it is burned. The remaining ash then "holds" no heat. They are speaking is heat value here. Wood in and of itself does not "retain" heat. Not very well unless it is painted or varnished because wood sn porous and heat can escape through the 'pores'.
What is a kind of chemical change?
Burning wood is a chemical change because the chemical makeup changes through the addition of heat. wood + heat = ash and other gases Pretty much when one substance changes into another substance and the change is irreversible, it is a chemical change.

What kind of heat energy is used in homes?

What burns on a fire?
