Basically, the carbon in the wood reacts to the oxygen in the atmosphere to produce CO2. As this is an exothermic reaction, it gives off heat.
Smoke is caused by either non-carbon elements within the wood reacting with the oxygen to form more noxious compounds, or the incomplete reactio of the caarbon with oxygen, causing partially reacted carbon to be released in the form of soot.
Chemical energy-->Radiant/Thermal energy i wrote that for my "do now" in school i had the same question i put this and got the question right so its just Chemical from the burning log itself,radiant from it light source (fire), and thermal from its heat.
A chemical change produces substances that are chemically different from what you started with. A log is no longer wood as we know it after it has been burned. The elements that made up the wood recombined in different ways with elements in the air to form water, carbon dioxide, ash, and other products as well.
Yes this is a chemical change, it is a change in composition.
A chemical change is a change that produces new substances. A log burning is a chemical change then, because it produces new substances like ash. The atoms have been rearranged.
Burning is a chemical reaction, an oxidation.
It is the oxidation of the elements of the chemicals that make up the wood - which are various organic compounds.
It is the oxidation of the hydrocarbons and other elements in the wood.
i really don't know
Combustion
Burning logs, or anything else for that matter, is a chemical change.
chemical because you can't undo it
A physical change in matter occurs when the shape or form of matter changes, but there is no chemical reaction. If someone were to melt a sugar cube, that would be an example of a physical change.
Depends on the amount of toothpicks
2 logs,each one fooy in diameter.
Burning logs, or anything else for that matter, is a chemical change.
Electric fireplace logs save you the hassle of having to clean like you would a traditional fireplace. There is no need to burn wood, so you also do not have the hassle of ashes. Once you have the electric fireplace logs you do not have to worry about keeping topped up with wood. It is very simple.
Peterson gas logs are decorative logs that are not made of actual wood. Therefore, the logs themselves don't burn. They can be used to spice up a fireplace or an outdoor fire pit.
While you can burn most woods, I would pass on the arborvitae. As an evergreen, you will get a LOT of creosote, fast burning, short lasting fires. It also contains a toxin believed to be a hallucinogen. A small amount used as kindling may not be a problem.

You can usually purchase gas logs for a home fireplace at home improvement stores. Home improvements store such as Lowes and Home Depot carry these logs.
If you keep adding wood, no time limit. A low fire, green logs, banking the fire, a maximum of about 6 hours.
The materials used for manufactured fireplace logs are usually either: Compressed sawdust only or compressed sawdust and paraffin. Firelogs are designed to be inexpensive and also burn more efficiently than firewood.
Yes, there are soot and creosote "cleaner" logs. In my opinion, they do not work as well as cleaning a chimney properly with a chimney brush.
"You can find a new fireplace log at Albertsons, Ralphs, Target. I prefer to go to Albertsons. They got a variety of new fireplace logs for you to choose from. From Duraflame all the way to Java logs."
Cooking an egg or burning logs on a fire.
A common type of fireplace used in cold countries like the USA is called a "wood-burning fireplace" or "traditional fireplace." These fireplaces are designed to burn wood logs to provide heat and create a cozy atmosphere in homes during cold weather.
