you fart on a candle....
reaction of na [sodium] with water or air
Yes, a glow stick produces light by means of a chemical change.
steel wool burns in oxegen and produces heat and light
chemical change

That would be a chemical change because the firefly produces a bio-luminescent chemical. This chemical produces light which you see when the fire fly lights up!
When you break a light stick, it is a physical change, not a chemical change. The breaking of the light stick only changes its physical state but does not alter its chemical composition. This is because the chemical reactions that produce light in a light stick have already occurred when the stick was activated, and breaking it does not initiate any new chemical reactions.
Chemical energy is converted to light energy in a chemical reaction called chemiluminescence. An example is the reaction between a chemiluminescent substance like luminol and hydrogen peroxide, which produces light without the need for heat or electricity. Another example is the combustion of magnesium in air, which releases energy in the form of light.
The chemical change in a lit candle is called combustion. Combustion is a rapid chemical reaction between oxygen in the air and the fuel (in this case, the wax in the candle) that produces heat, light, and carbon dioxide.
No, a matchstick is an example of chemical energy being converted to thermal energy and light energy during combustion. The chemical energy stored in the matchstick is released when ignited, resulting in the production of heat and light.
Heat, light, and change in odor can indicate a physical change depending on the context. For example, melting ice into water is a physical change because it does not alter the chemical composition of the substance. However, if a substance undergoes a chemical reaction that results in heat, light, and change in odor, then it would be considered a chemical change.
This is a physical change. When the electrons go through the filament (or gas), there is no chemical change, only the physical change of temperature. The electricity to power the light may be generated chemically (fossil fuels or batteries) or from a hydroelectric plant. The light from "glow sticks" is an example of light generated by chemical changes.
