Sagot :

The answer would be B. Wood becomes charred and black from burning. This is because A and C are both simply water changing state, therefore these are both physical changes. D is simply air escaping so there is no chemical change. In B, however, the wood is being burned in a combustion reaction which causes a chemical change.
