Title: Does the combustion of wood involve chemical energy, and melting ice involve physical energy? Post by: smmunday on Feb 13, 2013 You are correct.
Burning wood, changes the chemical make-up of the wood. But melting ice into liquid water does not change the chemical make-up of the water. Title: Does the combustion of wood involve chemical energy, and melting ice involve physical energy? Post by: lemonsplk on Feb 13, 2013 yes to both

Title: Does the combustion of wood involve chemical energy, and melting ice involve physical energy? Post by: tony960831 on Feb 13, 2013 Heres a good link for the examples of energy- http://www.eia.doe.gov/kids/energyfacts/science/formsofenergy.html. For more, try to R E A D your assigned course material!!!
Title: Does the combustion of wood involve chemical energy, and melting ice involve physical energy? Post by: tony on Feb 13, 2013 Yes, wood is a polysaccharides in typical, of course it also consists of xylem and phylum, xylem is what people usually refer to as WOOD. Any combustion is a transfer of chemical energy into heat. And melting of ice also requires heat, it is endothermic, the reason ice goes back to water automatically is that, room temperature provides sufficient heat for it to do so.
