When molecules of something are heated, they absorb the thermal energy and start to vibrate. When enough thermal energy is applied, then the chemical bonds break, and the atoms and molecules are now moving freely. If metal is heated for long enough at the right temperatures, then the molecules will disconnect, move freely, turning the metal into a liquid. But if its a type of fuel like wood or coal, then molecules rise to the air and immediately react to the oxygen causing an instant combustin reaction. Im 13 and hope this helped.
