A forest fire is an example of a chemical change because the heat from the fire causes the organic materials in the forest, such as trees and plants, to undergo combustion and break down into different chemical substances like carbon dioxide, water vapor, ashes, and smoke. This transformation of the original substances into new ones is a chemical change.
