What is the process of burning a fuel to change chemical energy into thermal energy called?
Combustion generally, but may be referred to by other names (oxidation in some instances). Keep in mind that combustion is the process of burning a fuel to change chemical POTENTIAL energy into thermal energy.
What is the ability of a substance to react in the presence of oxygen and burn when exposed to flame?
This is the chemical property called combustibility.
What chemical process is used to build organic polymers?
This chemical process is called polymerization.
Is gasonline burning physical or chemical change?
Gasoline burning is a chemical change called combustion. It reacts with O2 in the atmosphere, producing CO2 and H2O.
A substance whose potential chemical energy is transformed into thermal energy is called a?

If a candle burning example of?
Candle burning is the process called oxidation. This is, it's the reaction that takes place when a gaseous material reacts with oxygen, the wax needs to change to gaseous state for the reaction to take place.
What kind of heat energy is burning wood?
Burning wood is the process of converting chemical energy in the fuel into thermal energy. Heat transfer is the process of moving thermal energy from one object to another. There are different types oh heat transfer including radiation, conduction and convection. Basically, the wood burning is a spontaneous process, theoretically, but in order for the process to become under way something called the activation energy must be overcome, which means that an energy of that magnitude must be applied to the wood to get it burning (oxidising). This usually comes in the form of a spark or a flame from your lighter. So once you apply that activation energy from your lighter, the wood begins to burn, and the burning of the wood itself produces heat to propagate the process. So long as there is oxygen, fuel (such as wood or octane for example) and the initial spark, then you have fire!
How is burning an example of a chemical property?
Burning is an example of a chemical property because it can only be observed during a chemical reaction called combustion.
What is the process of burning called?
Combustion.
Heat from chemical energy?
Fuels such as oil, wood, coal, and natural gas have energy stored in them. This kind of energy is called chemical process of burning, the energy is released in the form of heat.
Is burning coal an example of a physical reaction or a chemical reaction?
Chemical. It is called combustion.
What is the process of burning something?
This process is called cellular respiration and is an oxidation.
