reaction of na [sodium] with water or air
you fart on a candle....
Yes, a glow stick produces light by means of a chemical change.
That would be a chemical change because the firefly produces a bio-luminescent chemical. This chemical produces light which you see when the fire fly lights up!
steel wool burns in oxegen and produces heat and light
Breaking a light stick is not a chemical in and of its self, but the subsequent process that produces light is.

Yes, although a matchstick produces heat as well as light. Anything that you burn or eat is chemical energy.
Basically Chemical Energy is stored up in the bonds. Chemical energy is usually converted to another form sucha sheat and light. Burning magnesium produces haet and light. The chemical energy is stored in the metal and the oxygen. It has a scientific name of chemical potential.
This is a physical change. When the electrons go through the filament (or gas), there is no chemical change, only the physical change of temperature. The electricity to power the light may be generated chemically (fossil fuels or batteries) or from a hydroelectric plant. The light from "glow sticks" is an example of light generated by chemical changes.
I would think it to be a Physical Change. Not chemical.
adding heat to a substance might produce a new gas, resulting in a chemical change for example when baking powder is heated it produces carbon dioxide gas which is needed to make a cake fluffy and light.
