Fire is actually a chemical reaction. It's an oxidation reaction to be specific. When wood gets hot enough (the part of the wood that is burning) the large hydrocarbons break down to charred solids and a gas. The gas is what reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere to produced light, CO2 and H2O.
Do not ionize in solutions
Poor conductors of electricity/heat
Low melting/boiling points
gases or liquids at room temperature

Answer:
B. it accounts for all the energy in the good even if some of its largely excreted by th body
The reaction of iron (III) oxide and aluminum is initiated by heat released from a small amount "starter mixture". This reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction, a single replacement reaction, producing great quantities of heat (flame and sparks) and a stream of molten iron and aluminum oxide which pours out of a hole in the bottom of the pot into sand.
The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:
2 Al(s) + Fe2O3(s) --> 2Fe(s) + Al2O3(s) + 850 kJ/mol
Curriculum Notes
This chemical reaction can be used to demonstrate an exothermic reaction, a single replacement or oxidation-reduction reaction, and the connection between ∆H calculated for this reaction using heats of formation and Hess' Law and calculating ∆H for this reaction using qrxn = mc∆T and the moles of limiting reactant. This reaction also illustrates the role of activation energy in a chemical reaction. The thermite mixture must be raised to a high temperature before it will react.
To determine how much thermal energy is released in this reaction, heats of formation values and Hess' Law can be used.
By definition, the deltaHfo of an element in its standard state is zero.
2 Al(s) + Fe2O3(s) --> 2Fe (s) + Al2O3 (s)
The deltaH for this reaction is the sum of the deltaHfo's of the products - the sum of the deltaHfo's of the reactants (multiplying each by their stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced reaction equation), i.e.:
deltaHorxn = (1 mol)(deltaHfoAl2O3) + (2 mol)(deltaHfoFe) - (1 mol)(deltaHfoFe2O3) - (2 mol)(deltaHfoAl)
deltaHorxn = (1 mol)(-1,669.8 kJ/mol) + (2 mol)(0) - (1 mol)(-822.2 kJ/mol) - (2mol)(0 kJ/mol)
deltaHorxn = -847.6 kJ
The melting point of iron is 1530°C (or 2790°F).
