Gas heating does not produce any "smoke" at all. Wood burning, however, produces smoke which is much more toxic than tobacco secondhand smoke. It is best to completely avoid wood heating.

Is heating a wood splint a chemical or physical change?

Heating a wood splint is a chemical change. If this was done in something like a test tube, you will see many things occur that indicate this. First, you will see a werid kind of smoke, the splint turning into black stuff, and a really bad smell. Well the smoke is CO2 and the black stuff is ash from the burning. Because there is a new substance being made and the identity of the original substance(your splint) has changed, the reaction is chemical.
