In this exciting episode of "The Short Answer," presented by ScienceABC, we embark on a fiery journey to discover the fascinating science behind wood combustion. Have you ever wondered what happens at the molecular level when wood burns? Join us as we delve into the intricate chemical reactions that transform a solid log into glowing embers and ash. We'll break down the components of wood, explain the stages of combustion from pyrolysis to oxidation, and reveal the reasons behind the vibrant flames and soothing warmth of a campfire. Whether you're an avid camper or just curious about the science of fire, this episode will ignite your understanding of what truly happens to wood when it burns. Tune in and get ready to see campfires in a whole new light!
