its a chemical reaction. in addition to heat and light, a new gaseous substances are formed
When a match stick is rubbed on a rough surface, the friction creates heat. The heat then ignites the chemicals on the match head, specifically the phosphorus and sulfur, which undergo a chemical reaction with the oxygen in the air. This reaction produces a flame, causing the match stick to light.
Photosynthesis.
chemical energy
the friction of the match causes the chemicals inside the match head to ignite...in cause as long as there is oxygen in the room the match will light as quick as you strike the match....in other words...the match only lights as fast as you can strike it
the balanced equation for the lighting of a match is: 16KCl3 + 3P4S3 --> 16 KCl + 9SO2 I'm pretty sure that's it:) this equation is wrong, you started off with phosphorous, but you did not have phosphorous in the result of the chemical reaction. Therefore, no such reaction can exist
There is a very small amount of kinetic energy in striking the match, but mostly you are releasing chemical potential energy. The match head just requires an increase in temperature to make it burn
yes burning a match is an examle of very fast reaction
Oxidation reaction
what substance you get when you're done with the chemical change.ex: match+lighter=reactants. when you mix those a certain way, you get a light!
Striking a match is an example of an endothermic reaction. It is also an example of simple combustion and a chemical reaction.

I would go with a dark dining set if you have light floors.
