Why does dense wood burn better?

Dense wood burns better because it contains more energy in the form of potential heat due to its higher wood fiber content. This allows it to sustain combustion for longer periods of time and produce more heat compared to less dense wood types.


Does wood density affect the time it takes to burn?

Yes, wood density does affect the burning time. Denser woods typically burn slower and longer than less dense woods because they have a higher energy content and slower combustion rate. Softer woods with lower density tend to burn faster and produce less heat.


Does the density of wood affect the amount of time it takes to burn?

Yes, the density of wood affects the rate of burning. Denser wood burns slower because it contains more material that needs to be heated up and burned off. Less dense wood burns faster because there is less material to be consumed.

because iron doesn't burn...it melts.


Why does Sound travel faster through air than through wood?

It doesn't, sound travels faster through wood. The more dense the material the better the sound carries. Because wood is more dense than a gas such as oxygen the sound travles faster through the wood.
