When matter is burned, a chemical reaction called combustion occurs. This releases energy in the form of heat and light, transforming the original matter into different chemical compounds like ashes, gases, and smoke. The burning process breaks down the molecular structure of the matter, resulting in a change in its physical and chemical properties.

When wood is burned in a closed container its mass does not change law theory or observation?

That is a law, specifically the law of conservation of mass. This states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical change. This was proved in Lavosier's experiment where he determined that the total lass of the products formed by burning were equal to the mass of the matter burned and oxygen consumed.
