Why is chacoal burning is a chemical change?

Burning the Charcoal changes the chemical composition of it as burning, or combustion as it is known is an example of a chemical reaction.An example of a combustion reaction is burning Methane (CH4) gas, the chemical equation is:CH4 + O2 -> CO2 + H2OThe reaction is Methane + Oxygen gives Carbon Dioxide and Water.The reaction has changed the chemical composition of the Methane as it has 'turned into' Carbon Dioxide and Water.Burning Charcoal will also produce ONLY Carbon Dioxide and Water.Hope this helps!
