What is the starting and finishing energy for wood on a fire?

The starting energy for wood on a fire is potential energy stored within the wood's chemical bonds. As the wood burns, this potential energy is converted into heat and light (thermal and radiant energy), ash, and smoke. Once the wood is completely burned, the finishing energy would mainly be in the form of heat, light, ash, and gases released during combustion.


Is wood ash is a good heat insulator?

Yes. Several sources recommend using mixtures of clay and wood ash to insulate chimney flues for low-tech, wood-burning stoves and heaters. Clay by itself if a poor insulator. The clay is present as a type of cement. Over time, the clay and wood ash form a solid substance similar to clay brick, but much less dense. Apparently, perlite and vermiculite are even better insulators for chimney flues, but these are mined or manufactured materials, so they are more expensive and or harder to obtain than wood ash. See "Designing Improved Wood Burning Heating Stoves" by Dr. Mark Bryden, Dean Still, Damon Ogle, and Nordica MacCarty (available online). Page 21 lists wood ash as a possible insulator.

Why does ash wood sink in water?

Ash wood sinks in water because it has a higher density compared to the density of water. Objects with higher density than water will sink, while those with lower density will float. Ash wood is denser due to the structure and composition of its cells, causing it to sink in water.


What happens when you burn a piece of wood in a campfire and how does the process of combustion affect the wood?

When you burn a piece of wood in a campfire, the process of combustion occurs. This involves the wood reacting with oxygen in the air to produce heat, light, and various byproducts like ash and smoke. The wood undergoes chemical changes as it breaks down into carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other compounds. This process releases energy in the form of heat and light, which is why the wood burns and eventually turns into ash.
