Can you burn a piece of wood by bringing a lighted matchstick near it? Explain.

No, we cannot burn a piece of wood by bringing a lighted matchstick near it. When a lighted matchstick is brought near a piece of wood it does not start burning because the ignition temperature of the wood is higher than a piece of paper.

A matchstick can light a tiny splinter of wood but not a big log of wood.
