Striking a match is an example of an endothermic reaction. It is also an example of simple combustion and a chemical reaction.

No, striking a match against a box is an example of friction creating heat. Convection involves the transfer of heat through the movement of fluid, such as air or water.
A match can be ignited by striking it against a rough surface, such as the striking strip on the matchbox.
Exothermic because the fire or spark created by striking the match is releasing energy
When striking a match, the chemical energy stored in the match-head is transformed into heat and light energy.
Striking a match against a matchbox involves frictional force. This force is generated when the rough surface of the match head rubs against the striking surface of the matchbox, producing enough heat to ignite the chemicals in the match. The friction converts kinetic energy from the motion of striking into thermal energy, leading to combustion.
Striking a match is a physical change because it can be reversed by extinguishing the flame. The chemical composition of the match does not change during this process.
Yup.
Striking a match initiates a chemical reacftion (burning). The proximity of the Bunsen burner has nothing to do with it.
When a match is struck, friction between the match head and the striking surface generates heat. This heat then ignites the chemicals in the match head, triggering a chemical reaction that produces more heat as the match burns.
No, a safety match needs a specially treated striking surface to generate the necessary friction and ignite. Without the treated surface, the match will not light.
He kept striking out.
